Review: Cruxshadows, Cygnosic and Momento Mori at Legends, Newcastle
Cruxshadows: worthy of much greater things, but always a big night of entertainment. Legends as always, looks its best in the dark and so suited this gothic gig which was attended by a crowd which filled the dancefloor with appreciative movement. The show started with Momento Mori, a band of 3 with a Numanesque sound bolstered by a bass and a guitar. In fact, the frontman looks as though his mum may have met up with Gary back in the day, something about the eyes....They sounded good, I will have to revisit the CD I got of theirs a couple of years ago. Momento Mori put on a good show with good songs and an impression that they enjoy the music and their time on stage. I do recommend seeing this band. Cygnosic took the stage with synths, sequencing and an accomplished guttural roar. They provided the desired electronic beats to get a section of the dancefloor happily gyrating in the style usually reserved for the more alternative electronic...
