This is wrong. This is persistent and intended to over-power the clear attempts to block and avoid this content.
The content is one thing, the way the IG feed targets and saturates it is where criminal intention enters the picture. This behaviour is known and excused and targeted and persistent and SHOULD be seen as HATE SPEECH as well as ASSAULT.

There was the performance, and there was the venue.
Venue:
Props to the organizers for having very organized merch area, bars, even food vendors, and EMS on hand for the people who fainted. But the main space where the band was -- felt like a cinderblock sweathouse that was so packed it was looking like a firetrap as people struggled to leave for bathroom or air or to escape the heat of so many people slammed together, breathing chemical fog for hours.
Performance:
The opening act was brilliant, the lightshow began and an audio played at concert volume of a Venom concert's between-song banter introducing next songs -- then 5 seconds of the intro, 5 seconds of the end of the song, the thank you, then banter, 5 seconds, 5 seconds, you get the gyst -- and the fog on the stage and the lights synced to the Venom excerpts -- a great joke -- Venom reduced to Stand-up, stripped of the dramatic build and release of the actual songs. Whoever came up with this is diabolical!
Perfect intro to Sunn 0))) who have distilled Power Chords and Power Gestures, very little riffery this night, almost like watching a band tune, and then say "Awesome!" repeatedly. Compelling yet, as the ban have admitted in interviews, there are some quasi-Spinal Tap moments to be had. And with that, many in the crowd were rapturous. It was definitely NOT stagnant or predictable corporate slop, and the hike through the puddles to the warehouse made it moreso whatever it was instead.
The performed tunes are admittedly variable because they are improvised, but the overall feel was powerful as 'an experience' but the music was far from as rich as the new recording is -- which holds up nicely on stereo and on headphones.
A ritual of endurance. If Monks could chest bump, this would be the time to do it.
