Dear The Kids At Isis Tonight Who Were Moshing And Throwing The Horns During A Prolonged Ambient Guitar Interlude In The Middle Of A Song From In The Absence of Truth,
I know that somebody told you that Isis is a metal band (though that information was erroneous), but that doesn’t mean that you don’t even have to listen to the music before deciding how to respond to it.
You are stupid.
You guys, Isis is not the sort of band that generally provides you with that sort of cathartic release, certainly not on their last two albums.
Which are not metal albums.
Okay.
-Deniz
P.S. Here is their press paragraph for this tour:
“Isis is a progressive band from L.A. with heavy riffs and psychedelic themes.”
Look! Look how hard they’re trying to not identify as a metal …
