In a couple of weeks/months I'll be attending Death Metal and Black Metal shows for the first time. I've been to Metal shows before (Metallica, Megadeth, Rammstein...) where the audience is so large that it wasn't difficult to avoid the mosh pits for the most part lol but now I'm going with someone to these other shows where I think I'm gonna be thrown around like a ragdoll.
The shows will take place in medium-sized venues. First it's the Death Metal show, the band is Carcass and I'm just starting to listen to their songs. The Black Metal show will take place in a few months, the band is Asagraum. Never heard of them before, pretty intense.
I'm anticipating these shows will be very intense and I'll probably get trapped and pulverized in a mosh pit. Also, Black Metal kinda doesn't have the best reputation... I think. But the person I'm going with is like "don't worry, it's gonna be fun" š I'll report back if I survive.
So, to those with experience in this: What can I expect from these shows and their crowds?
