Between this video and your Skinny Puppy video, I'm really loving these extended concert/trip videos. Also, I'm glad you got to see Agalloch and things got better after such a shitty time.
Hey bro, thanks for sharing this video and some of the dialogue from the show. I wasn't able to attend this show, so I appreciate seeing what little of it people have been posting.
Tony i just wanna say thank you so much you’ve had probably the biggest impact on my music taste (besides my dad) you introduced me to some of my favorite albums and bands (brainoil, dystopia, ministry, type o negative, tool, bad brains, skinny puppy and probably others I’m not thinking of) so i wanted to return the favor and tell you about 2 post black groups I’ve been loving sadness and alene misantropi
I won't forget when I first listened to Agalloch in February 2015 (the magnificent song was "Falling Snow", then the next one was "Not Unlike the Waves"). I was immediately hooked to their atmospheric and pure metal music! But the following year, the roof caved in when I learned they broke up (as well as Bolt Thrower). I thought we would never hear from them again until this year! Luck be told that I might finally get the chance to see the one and only Agalloch if they come to Texas. I'm glad you saw them and had a hell of a time, Killbot! Grind on!
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack I also didnt know Agalloch hung out at Horse Brass Pub. I just went earlier this year randomly while killing time before a Eluveitie show.
I am listening to Agalloch since their "Pale Folklore" Album, it flashed me. When the breakup was being announced, it felt like a death into the family. And shortly before, i couldn't see them live into cologne/germany on Wednesday, the 12th august 2015 here...because of work. It really sucked hard.
Looks like it was an amazing and profound experience. Agalloch is my favourite band currently active. I'd be blessed to see them live. Now I actually have a chance. It was nice seeing someone take the journey I've been longing for. Glad things are looking up.
We really enjoyed it and the video was helpful so i can use even if I been before but hearing places is a better guide and hope u know who loves you my friend
Looks like you had a great time! Very cool video, next time I'm in Portland I have to do more exploring and see some of the things you did because I only got there the day before from Toronto (went to the Bulldozer gig right after landing, which was pretty sweet even if I was exhausted as fuck). I managed to spot myself in your video too, in the crowd shot at 20:11 - I'm the short-haired dude wearing the leather vest with the utterly crazy back patch. 🦉💀 Nice Agalloch-styled background music too! The show itself was one of the best I'd ever been to, maybe the best, and meeting the dudes by the guard rail afterwards was awesome. They're my favourite band of all time and it was my 3rd time seeing them; I flew out for it purely because I was worried it might be my last chance. Caught a flu bug on the way back, but it was worth it!
Thank you for doing all this Portland stuff! I live here in Oregon city and I’m currently not old enough to do most of the fun stuff that’s in Portland! So thank you for showing me what it’s like !!!! I hope to meet you one day!
Wow we must’ve been standing pretty close to one another near the barrier, saw myself a few times in your videos at McMenamins. What a great show! And great job making this video documenting it! If you ever go to Portland again, it may be worth checking out that Little Red Shed- it was cool being in the same spot those lyrics were written, and makes you feel like you’re in the track “A Desolation Song”
I have seen a few shows in PDX. There is so much stuff there, you do get the feeling like you've barely scratched the surface. You got to see some cool shit! It has many venues and a great scene. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit out west!
Great video dude! I’m so sorry to hear about all of the struggles at the beginning of the video, but I hope you’re doing better now. Thank you for recording your experience, I’m unfortunately unable to make it to any of the Agalloch shows on this run, so this is a great way to live it vicariously. And I’m glad you enjoyed Denver! I’ve been lucky enough to grow up in the area and Wax Trax is no more than a 30 minute drive. Easily the best in Denver!
Man, that would have been a killer show! I love Agalloch! I have the limited wooden box version of Ashes Against the Grain with the little bag of ashes and bone…do you have that?
This was nicely put together, bravo! I think the best thing about these types of videos is not just the experience we viewers get to share, but it provides a time piece for you to go back to after life has taken it's course, so you can look back and see how much things have changed.
Wow. This Video was amazing! I feel like I was right there with you the throughout the whole video. I seriosly pray for the day that I can see them live aswell. I know they were here a few weeks ago in germany but the ticket prices for the festival were too high plus I would have had to travel for like an entire day to get to where the festival was taking place and not only did I not have enough money for the festival but also the travel costs would have been a chore. But anyways I hope they are gonna play again at some point in the future near the city that I live in germany. Again such a nice video!
Awesome, I’ve been looking forwards to this video! I live in the Pacific Northwest, but I’ve never been able to visit Portland even though I’ve been to other parts of the state. That reunion show would have been an amazing reason for a first visit, but I sadly couldn’t make it happen, but I’m very happy to live vicariously through this video! Seems like you had an amazing time there, definitely a good way to break up a few months of bullshit
Watching this video was like a where's waldo of all the places in portland I walk and go by constantly. 2nd avenue is like a safe haven every time I go there
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack yeah! I’ve lived around the area for around 8 years now and started going to diy punk and metal shows 3 years ago. Had a huge smile on my face watching the video and seeing you enjoy the places i’ve been at a million times.
if anyone is too young to have experienced it, i promise this was the most like seeing them during the Dwayne era of any tour they’ve done post Last Rights.
Grib Jaanga Magazine (myself included) were so happy to hang out! Don't hesitate to visit again soon, and let us know! There's other arcades to visit!!! 🤙💀
man, i'm so sorry to hear that you've been ghosted. it's one of the most (if not THE most) disgustingly inhumane things one can do to another person. so unnecessary and just straight up cruel. only cowards do such a thing!! still, i'm happy that you keep meeting new people and making new friends - hopefully they will turn out being worthy of your time.
I love meeting people. Yeah, it doesn’t matter how long you’ve known them, or how close you are to them, or how good of a friend you try to be, sometimes people want it to be over for their own reasons. Best thing to do is pick yourself up and keep going
I had a similar experience with depression and hard times this summer. But I eventually overcame it with believe it or not two albums called first born by eyedea and spheres by Deutsch death metal band pestilence. Released in 1993
They mentioned a couple times they’re trying to return it. But they have such a big homeless problem that everyone wants to focus on that first… after what I saw that week, I can’t say I blame them
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack That is fair. The housing crisis across the entire world is absurd at the moment. I hope to one day visit Portland when I next return to the US and get a photo of the Elk statue myself!
Also, I’m going to be seeing Agalloch for their first show ever down here in Melbourne, Australia on Sunday evening. Words can’t expressed how stoked I am (been a big fan since I discovered them at the end of high school in 2014)!
I just got a problem cavity filled. Is it usual to have terrible pain afterwards? (I also got both effigy of the forgotten and splatterthrash on cd today which helped out a bit)
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack I'll have to try that if my parents don't forget to take me whatever date the next time cuz it's in August ( I really hope they forget tho) cuz I fkn hate the dentist it's fkn gaaaaaaY
The sheer length of that merch line just goes to show how strong of a cult following this band has. That is something you just don’t see with most bands/artists regardless of how big they are.
2nd Avenue Records has and always will be my go to for metal. Music Millennium has good stuff (found a Sin After Sin 1st press, and the first 2 Dio albums as 1st presses), but 2nd Avenue will always be superior (regardless of the size)
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack you're welcome! Dude I just heard one of your songs and love it! I've been on an agalloch kick recently (found them like 15 years ago) and really wanna do some folk metal type music now. Originally I did cause of opeth haha. You collaborate with other people or email music ideas?
This was an experience I won’t forget. Show was incredible and thank you for hanging!
Thank YOU for telling me about the pub thing! Was great meeting you both!
Between this video and your Skinny Puppy video, I'm really loving these extended concert/trip videos. Also, I'm glad you got to see Agalloch and things got better after such a shitty time.
I agree 100%!
Thank you!! There MIGHT be another Skinny Puppy video coming in December. Be sure to see my Exhorder trip videos from 2018, one of them is 45 minutes
Hey bro, thanks for sharing this video and some of the dialogue from the show. I wasn't able to attend this show, so I appreciate seeing what little of it people have been posting.

I live near Portland and was completly unaware of this show. Damn!!
It was damn incredible
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack I also didnt know Agalloch hung out at Horse Brass Pub. I just went earlier this year randomly while killing time before a Eluveitie show.
Really awesome video 😊 You transported me into your trip
Simply Amazing man 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Aw yeah!
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack really wish these metal bands being on more bigger stages
Awesome job! Glad you were able to cram so many experiences into 5 days. We have a cat cafe here in Dayton Ohio also 🤘
Great video as always. Glad you had a great time in Portland. Sounds like it was a well deserved trip!
Loved it there. Loved Denver, too!!

I hear ya
I flew in from Toronto. there was no way I was going to miss this. Closest thing to a religious experience I have ever had.
Had so much fun hanging with you in Denver!!! Thanks so much for including me on your adventure. Come back sometime!!
You know I will!!
Dude this is your second best video so far. The first one being the Bolt Thrower review, of course. And sorry to hear about your troubles this year.
Why thank you!!
Dude that's one of the best videos I've seen on RUclips. And I can't believe you're just on the other side of Raleigh. I had no idea!!!
Thank you much! I’m in Elon
Looks like it was an amazing and profound experience. Agalloch is my favourite band currently active. I'd be blessed to see them live. Now I actually have a chance.
It was nice seeing someone take the journey I've been longing for. Glad things are looking up.
Incredible band. Perhaps you can see them in Denver! Worth the trip
Glad to see you checked out 2nd ave hell yea
That place was awesome
We really enjoyed it and the video was helpful so i can use even if I been before but hearing places is a better guide and hope u know who loves you my friend

Fucking awesome video, thanks Tony for sharing your crazy stories!
Thank you! Excellent stay in Portland

I do get around, I’ll be back someday. Thank you for enjoying the video!
Used to watch you like 4 years ago, it's cool to see you still going strong!
Thank you! Get back to doing it regularly, videos are better than ever!
THE LEGEND RETURNS DUDEEEEE
Great video, thanks for that!
Yes!
YESSS HELLOOO
First. Yeah, I said it!
September 23rd. Significant date. Good to see they are back.
Absolutely
I haven’t listened to agalloch yet, after watching, I’m definitely gonna check em out
Dude, a whole catalog rich with quality. Can’t go wrong with them
Man I live next to Portland and I didn’t know about this
Would’ve been good if you did
Such an awesome trip my guy! Glad to see you had so much fun after your string of bad luck over the summer 🤘
If Agalloch comes near you, see them!
Wow we must’ve been standing pretty close to one another near the barrier, saw myself a few times in your videos at McMenamins. What a great show! And great job making this video documenting it!
If you ever go to Portland again, it may be worth checking out that Little Red Shed- it was cool being in the same spot those lyrics were written, and makes you feel like you’re in the track “A Desolation Song”

I have seen a few shows in PDX. There is so much stuff there, you do get the feeling like you've barely scratched the surface. You got to see some cool shit!
It has many venues and a great scene. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit out west!
That was my first time in the West Coast since 2015. Worth it
awesome stuff man. you document everything really well. LOVE Agalloch! legendary
Thank you! It’s what I do best. Legend band.
Killer video! You really gave an awesome tour
Thank you so much! I try my best
Great to see you had fun sucks to hear about the car issues at the start of the video
Thank you!! It was horrible, but life goes on and you pick yourself up
Had covid this summer too. Feel ya
Second time getting it. This time it was mostly sniffles, but you obviously can’t go to the dentist if you have it
Great video dude! I’m so sorry to hear about all of the struggles at the beginning of the video, but I hope you’re doing better now. Thank you for recording your experience, I’m unfortunately unable to make it to any of the Agalloch shows on this run, so this is a great way to live it vicariously. And I’m glad you enjoyed Denver!

Denver was awesome. Hey, at the end of the video, “things were finally good.”
Man, that would have been a killer show! I love Agalloch! I have the limited wooden box version of Ashes Against the Grain with the little bag of ashes and bone…do you have that?
That sounds amazing, but I do not
This was nicely put together, bravo! I think the best thing about these types of videos is not just the experience we viewers get to share, but it provides a time piece for you to go back to after life has taken it's course, so you can look back and see how much things have changed.
You wouldn’t believe the things that I remember (left out of the videos) if I rewatch them years later
Killer vid Tony!!!
Gracias
"It can't rain all the time" Glad things are going better for you...that looked like a great experience that you'll cherish for a lifetime :)
Quotes from The Crow make things better, haha! Yes, I loved Portland and Denver, had a great time
My work has sent postcards out for schmitzah pizza xD. Looks like a good trip. I'm seeing Agalloch in Denver. Will be awesome seeing them again.
Khemmis is playing that fest! You’ll like them
Khemmis is a different day. I'm only going Day 2. I did see them the last 2 years. They're aight.@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack
Wow. This Video was amazing! I feel like I was right there with you the throughout the whole video. I seriosly pray for the day that I can see them live aswell.

There was a guy near me who went to Prophecy Fest. Agalloch is blessed to have fans as die-hard as they are… thank you for watching!
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack Yeah!
15:28 field of nephilim shirt. Nice!

I'm hoping they'll strike back with a new album, man.. that'd be dope
That would be
Half an hour of Killbot, the wait for new content was definitely worth it!
Hopefully the wait isn’t as long this time :)
Nothing like a killbot tour of a city great vid
I’m an explorer. Usually I’ll drop my things off and then just walk for hours
Amazing video dude! 🤘🖤
Thank you much!! :)

Now you need Ashes Against The Grain!!
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack I've heard great things!

Yes!
Wish I could've run into you. Unfortunately school started earlier and missed the chance 🥲
Would’ve been cool

Aw yeah
Why did the Vandals not destroy the Otters? 😂 I played guitar with Don Anderson in his first band Subliminal Subduction. 🎉
I’m pleased to have you here!! Very cool stuff everyone’s been involved in
I love how similar this is to Sam Dunn's documentaries. Well done!
Why thank you!

“I’ve been looking forward to this”
I was trying to find a way to go to this show but flights from Australia are….. quite expensive
Twice the pride, double the fall!
25:16 is that Big Dan from HME?
Wouldn’t that be something?
great video killbot
Gracias
What is playing when you are in WaxTrax! ?
My own music/soundscapes
@@KillbotAndGorGorAttack Thought so. 🤘
Do you guys think this means they will tour again and even make more music?
I think we can expect more shows. As for albums? It’d be a dream, though I’m sure the guys will have to sit on whatever material they have for a while
are this cabinets loaded with celestion g12t75
I have no idea
Damn, it sucks that the Elk statue was vandalised during the 2020 riots. Does anyone know if it’s being restored or if it’s up again?

A band with no replacement, got them tatted up in my forearm.
