I try to go Summer Slaughter Tour each year since death metal festivals are rare now a day. It's my third time to be there. I only caught the last song of Enterprise Earth, because I was late, and waiting to got Cannibal Corpse's shirt and vinyl. Enterprise Earth is kind of a new band. They started in 2014. I like the two vocals in the band, which reminds me of The Black Dahlia Murder.

I really like the second band INGESTED. Their music is pretty heavy and powerful. They are a British brutal death metal and deathcore band. There were great energies in their performance.

Krisiun is a 90's Brazilian death metal band. I like their fast speed and the old school riffs. Their music is pretty powerful.

I really like technical death metal, but there are not many good technical death metal bands I like. Many technical metal bands are trying so hard to play super fast and technically with great guitar solos, but their music lost harmonious rhythms, and many parts don't connect well in my opinion. Revocation is not bad (I'm really picky about this type of death metal), I'm glad to knew this band last night. I'm going to listen to more of their music.

Carnifex had one of my favorite performances last night. It's my second time saw their live. It's super intense and exciting. They are one of my favorite deathcore bands.

I can't believe I saw Suffocation last night! I knew them for 15 years already! They are one of the best death metal bands ever.

I don't really like After The Burial, because they put too much recorded electronic background music on their performance. However, I like the vocal's attitude that he knew many metalhead dislike their style, but he accepted all of that shit with a big heart and tried hard to put a exciting performance. All the negative voices didn't affect them at all.

It's my second time saw Nile's live. It's pretty awesome! I love their 2015 album. Their drum always reminds me Morbid Angeles. I love the mystery and dark feeling in their music.
