My Bloody Valentine - 1992 - Austin, Texas


In early 1992 Dinosaur Jr, My Bloody Valentine and Babes in Toyland embarked on a U.S. tour and turned up the volume on their amps past 11. I saw 'em in March at Avalon in Boston. Stellar show from all bands, one of my favorites. My Bloody Valentine finished their set with a punishingly loud and especially feedback drenched version of "You Made Me Realize" - I mean REALLY loud, feel it in your organs loud - just like they did when the tour hit Liberty Lunch in Texas on the 8th of February 1992 as seen and heard 
in the clips below.

Sepultura - 1990 - El Paso, Texas


During the late 80s, Sepultura (means grave in Portuguese) were hitting a career peak with their Brazilian crafted thrash/death metal, demolishing listeners on 1989s genre classic Beneath the Remains. Produced by Scott Burns in a rather old school Rio de Janeiro studio in a short amount of time, this record brought their extremely heavy and fast music to a larger audience through it's release by the Roadrunner label.

Was lucky enough to catch Sepultura on the 1989 leg of their first American tour in support of Beneath the Remains when then played Chicago at the modestly sized Exit. The Exit was still in Old Town near Second City then and at that point had a half domed, playground looking "thunderdome" set up around the stage, which helped cause additional mayhem. The show was incredible, with the power and force of the performance making it an all time favorite show for me. Saw them next in 1992 (very briefly) when they and Helmet opened for Ministry (which, even though I grew up in the Chicago suburbs, was the first and only time I saw Ministry - they were kinda tainted for me by their With Sympathy era - never dug that record). Sepultura also played on the Alice n Chains/Ozzy tour in 1992.

This footage represents a show towards the end of the Beneath the Remains tour, from El Paso, Texas.
