Our debut gig and was great to be playing alongside Funhouse and D.U.S.T. a big thanks you to Michael Johnson for putting this great event on. |
Here is what a few people said about the gig:-

Corrosion are a rebadged version of All Living Fear. They both wander on stage looking
like a band who've lost the bass player and a drummer. They don't much look like a Band
... But! they sound like one, starting with a bit of a guitar frenzy, and generally being
a model of clarity compared to D.U.S.T. Unsurprisingly, they sound a bit like All Living
Fear, and even throw in a rather good cover of ALF's "Fortunes Light". Well, I
guess we weren't really expecting sexy latin rhythms or a bit of drum'n'bass. Of course
the addition of sexy latin rhythms (or whatever) would have added variety to their sound,
and perhaps help save Corrosion from any "just a new name for ALF" style
comments. But, OK, so Corrosion are for the guitar-band fans, so some people might say
their sound lacks variety. In a way it does, but this is well offset by the fact the song
instead are distinguished more by lyrics that you can hear: they do rather better than
Funhouse in this respect.

I enjoyed Corrosion quite a bit, too - not having seen/heard All Living Fear in a very
long time, all of the material played was new to me (and was a pleasant surprise).
Good tunes, pretty good debut for the new band... although I think Paul's poor health
can't have helped vocals or stage presence much... I'd like to see them again when he's
fully recovered.
