Assassino

House of Blues, Anaheim

Ugh. One of those opening bands that a show could have done without. To make it short, these guys are from Mexico I think, although they seem to play up in L.A. alot. Basically a couple of fat guys playing loud thrash metal with no melody and no decipherable lyrics. And they had some ridiculously crappy outfits on to boot ... some kind of a furry hairy face mask thing. I don't know. They sucked. I don't say that about a lot of people as you can tell if you've read most of the reviews on here. But it wasn't a lot of fun putting up with these guys. Oddly enough one of the other bands of the night, and I pray to god it wasn't Static-X, although I'm not sure, brought Assassino's guitarist up for a cameo. Maybe I just don't get it ... maybe I just don't want to ... in either case I hope to never see these guys again.

Thankfully I couldn't find a website for these morons.
