CAGE live at the PROG POWER USA X festival (United States)
BRAVE WORDS & BLOODY KNUCKLES magazine review by Marc Gromen
San Diego’s CAGE was the first to meet the challenge. In a word, relentless! Cage = No Ballads, just a flurry of lightning quick traditional metal that borders on speed/thrash. While some early arriving middle-aged couples sat in the amphitheatre like the wind blown Maxell commercials, the stamina required to sustain this barrage is amazing. From the opening ‘Planet Crusher’ (which also kicks off their latest CD, Science Of Annihilation) it was non-stop intensity: ‘I Am The King’ (floor length buster attired singer Sean Peck thrusting the mic into the crowd for each titular chorus), ‘Kill The Devil’ (the body building guitarist Dave Garcia and axe partner Anthony McGiness providing back-up vocals), the synchronized stage movements of ‘Scarlet Witch’, ‘Hell Destroyer’ during which the singer climbed the drum riser (a rarity at ProgPower), ‘Black River Falls’ a showcase of the different voices in Peck’s head/throat, ‘Speed Kills’ (perhaps the fastest song ever performed at PP), the hammer-on begun ‘Metal Devil’ and a closing, albeit abbreviated paean to one of the audience’s Holy Trinity, SAVATAGE (‘Dungeons Are Calling’). Blistering…sweat-soaked…wow!

Here is our first live DVD presentation. We had just played the 2001 Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, a huge gig and basically all of the pressure was off. We were in a bus with the band Exciter, and Dave and I had our wives with us as well. We pulled into Switzerland with very little sleep and still excited from the Wacken gig. We exited the warm bus into the cold rainy day. The lineup was great with bands like Overkill, Immortal, Destruction, W.A.S.P. and others on the bill. Luckily we were scheduled to play the indoor stage which as you could see had great lighting and sound. Both of the girls we brought manned the cameras and we went for it. Everything was rushed and I remember being very relaxed going on. Everything went great and although our set was a little short, we rocked that day! Glad we can finally share it with you, enjoy!
