Concert review mailing list by Dirk Gómez, 4 Mar 1997: Cluster
Bomb Unit/ Y/ Infront (all Ger) in Eisenbahner (Berlin)/ 7-Feb-97Eisenbahner is somehow the replacement for the LSD, just that it
is really far out :-( Plus it is located in Lichtenberg, one of the Nazis'
favorite hangout quarters... Still, this package was a definite must.
I don't really remember which bands opened up, which band came then and so one.
It was all pretty much the same and it was pretty ok: Crust-Hardcore/Punk with
growling and crying singers. Especially the fact that they now sold good beer
besides that awful Czech dark beer played quite a special role. Home trip took
more than two hours, missed a train, fuck! Next morning was quite hard. Had to
get up to go to the demonstration against G7 and nuclear power, but hey I made it!
FLIPSIDE Nr. ?: CBU - live San Francisco "Epicenter"
16.08.1996... CLUSTER BOMB UNIT from Germany graced San Francisco with
their pressence in mid-August. Totally amazing - I was really
impressed with them. I had heard them before, and to tell you the
truth, wasn´t impressed, but seeing them live changed all that. I
am a real fan now and seeing them was just fucking awesome. They
did a rad cover of "Rotten to the Core" by RUDIMENTARY PENI and
were just awesome. I can´t even describe it. Athena
Konzert Bericht im STRAIGHT Nr. 4: GRACE/ CONSERVATIVES/ SOG/
ACCION MUTANTE und CLUSTER BOMB UNIT live inBietigheim, Farbstraße
29.9.1995... Komischerweise ohne Diskussion fingen die guten alten CLUSTER
BOMB UNIT mit ihrem Krachgewitter an. Immer wieder eine feine
Sache ! Soundprobleme sind da wirklich völlig nebensächlich. Die DISCHARGE-
Sache sehr gut runter-gemetzgert, mit abgebrochenem Riesen als Schreihals (der seinen
Hass sehr überzeugend kundtat, spitze!!). Pratzig und wie
immer gut abgedreht, mit Bierspritzeinlagen kann man die Stimmung durchaus
als "kochend" bezeichnen... |
