A mysterious Portal

Nobody has any time to waste, not even when you’re fucking around on the internet. I don’t and I wouldn’t waste your time either, believe me. So when it is suggested that it might be worth watching this 4 minute film clip, take it seriously.



This is an amazing live performance by the Brisbane band Portal whom I had sadly not heard of until recently. I think they describe themselves as death metal, which I know little about. To my ears this is like an event in a post-apocalyptic Olympics. It’s the heavy metal equivalent of those 14 year old eastern European girls with the streamers. How the fuck do they make such pretty shapes when the thing’s trailing 6 meters behind them? I don’t know and I have no idea how Portal train for their event either, but it payed off. If you aren’t already experienced, prepare to have your mind blown. If you're turned off by words like death and heavy and metal just watch anyway, it's life enriching. Go on, look at that headgear, you wont regret it...
