Low @ Ogden Theatre, Denver CO, 1995-09-26
Here is another of the MarcR DAT archive. This time I present a really beautiful recording of the Minnesota band Low at the Ogden Theatre back on September 26th 1995. They were on tour with Soul Coughing. They were supporting their album 'Long Division' but played some older songs and some songs that end up on the next album 'The Curtain Hits The Cast'.
I have been listening to Alan Sparhawk's newest solo album and his collaboration with Trampled By Turtles a bunch recently. Both are fantastic is different ways. That reminded me MarcR had a Low recording. After really listening to it I knew I had to share it. This show isn't listed on setlist fm or on the Low LMA page. So here is an uncirculated 1995 Low show with one of the most respectful and quiet audiences I have ever not heard. Alan even thanks them for being so quiet at one point. Enjoy!

Carcass @ HQ, Denver CO, 2025-09-26
For the final scary thatsthethingaboutthat post of October. What is scarier that a dead body? Human or animal remains prepared for consumption or left to rot. BOO!! Scary to most people's ears is the long running British band Carcass. With albums like Reek of Putrefaction or the cover art of Symphonies of Sickness was enough to put most people off. Carcass rise above the death metal pack not only with killer riffs but a sense a humor about the whole thing. An cornerstone band in that musical universe.
I had seen Carcass a few times in the past but it was a special treat to see them at the smallish Denver venue HQ. They had been playing much bigger rooms across the country on this tour but we got a more personal experience. Hell of a show with Headonist, Necrot, and Brujeria as support.
I think HQ is a pretty good sounding room and I think they brought in some extra PA for this night. Pretty happy with how this turned out. Enjoy.

Satan’s Satyrs @ Summit Music Hall, Denver CO, 2015-04-10
For today's scare on thatsthethingaboutthat. Satan!! Defiantly scary. Satyrs totally creepy man beasts. But both are fictional characters. Not much to be scared about really. I find people that literally believe satan is real and blame him for things real and imagined to be way more terrifying. BOO!!!
Satan’s Satyrs was an American band from Virginia. The formed in the late aught and disbanded in 2019. The main satyr Clayton Burgess, who started the band after being influenced but Saint Vitus, Electric Wizard, and Witchfinder General, ended up playing bass for Electric Wizard from 2013 to 2018, You can hear the fuzzed out 70s biker vibes in their songs big time.
At this show they opened up for Electric Wizard and had some equipment issues but other wise sounded pretty good. Enjoy.

Skeleton Key @ Fox Theatre, Boulder CO, 2003-05-10
For today's scare on thatsthethingaboutthat. Skeletons are defiantly scary. Skeleton's with keys terrifying!!! BOO!! Skeleton Key was a band from New York City that started in the mid 90s. Erik Sanko started the band and was the only constant member over the years. He described Skeleton Key as using antique microphones, primitive guitars, and unconventional percussion to create a sound that was luxurious, yet affordable. They remind me a bit of Soul Coughing a little bit.
They released an album on Capital Records in 1997. In 2002 they released an album on Mike Patton's label Ipecac which is how the ended up on tour opening up for Melvins and Tomahawk. I've shared the Tomahawk recording before but never the Melvins. I'll have to get that up at some point.
I missed the beginning of the set for some reason and the last song on the recording fades out. An incomplete capture but what I did get is pretty entertaining. Enjoy.

Spirit Possession @ Bluebird Theatre, Denver CO, 2022-07-15
Today's scare on thatsthethingaboutthat. What would the Halloween season be without some spirits and possessions? Put them together it's even better. Spirt Possession from Portland OR live at the Bluebird Theatre back in 2022. The describe themselves as "raw schizophrenic angular spiraling black metal explodes with razor thrashing guitars, blistering drum violence, commanding torturous vocals, and apocalyptic harsh noise". BOO!!
Their 1st album hadn't been out very long at the time of this show so they play mostly songs off of it but at the end they play "Practitioners Of Power" which ends up on the 2023 release '...Of The Sign".
All available on bandcamp. Go support independent music anyway you can.
I ran my mics on a tall stand for this one so I think it captures that night pretty well. Spirit Possession was part of a killer bill with Elizabeth Colour Wheel, Body Void, Jarhead Fertilizer, Indian, and Primitive Man. Bonkers show. Enjoy.

"Demons" @ Lion's Lair, Denver CO, 2002-03-02
Today's scare on thatsthethingaboutthat. Demons are scary to a lot of people. Demons are not real though so maybe the scariest thing about this post is Mathias Carlsson's sick guitar tone blasting of the Lion's Lair stage. "Demons" are from Sweden and came up out of the that rock scene and pre date Hellacopters by a few years. They are mining that same rock vein. Loud, fast, punk edged Rock N Roll.
They toured the US heavily in the early aughts. I think mostly due to the fact that American label Gearhead was putting out their albums. I saw them with New Bomb Turks a couple times. At this show the opened up for The Dragons along with Land Of El Caminos. Fun show.
They were still touring behind their LP "Riot Salvation" but they do play a couple songs from the then upcoming LP "Stockholm Slump". We get a couple choice covers of The Pagans and Misfits.
RAWK!!
