So this isn't a "normal" show for I Adapt. We (amongst tons of other quality bands of all styles) played for a cause last night, a show to raise awareness about this practice/show/art space that the city refuses to support. It's closing down because of depts. That means that more than 50 bands lose their space to practice, the only independent venue for DIY shows with a proper p.a. and a soundguy will be history etc.
So the guy that runs this place got a huge dowtown venue to do this very prolific show and get people to take notice. It was a free show, huge high stage and a metal-light-tech-guy as you will see in this video.
This is us playing the song Familiar Ghosts for the first time ever.This same video contains a song from a death metal band called Severed Crotch and extreme metallers Changer.
Enjoy:

Til þeirra sem gáfu okkur gaum á stóru TÞM tónleikunum á laugardaginn:
Heyriði, þetta var bara helvíti skemmtilegt og mögulega gagnlegt. Við rifum kjaft um ástandið en því miður gerðu bara 2 önnur bönd það að mig minnir. Þar sem klukkan var að ganga ellefu þegar viðr við byrjuðum þá tókum við 15mín sett, þar sem að Severed Dick og Senser voru á eftir okkur. Þannig að helmingurinn af því sem við ætluðum að spila var ekki spilaður. Að því sögðu þá tókum við eitt nýtt lag út til þess að spila Afraid To Leave fyrir slammarana þarna úti því að við áttum engan vegin von á stemmningu sem þessari. Þetta átti allt að vera ný eða "óvinsæl" lög fyrir utan Historical Manioulation In A NIce Suit.
Þetta var mjög gaman, Birkir þarf að syngja eins og maður en ekki eins og ónýt prumpublaðra en I Adapt vonar að sjá ykkur öll sömul sem oftast á næstu mánuðum því við viljum kynna ykkur fyrir nýja efninu og get you into it.
I Adapt þakkar öllum sem mættu til að leggja málstaðnum lið, horfa og hlusta á allt listafólk dagsins, þeim sem gáfu okkur gaum, þeim sem hrysstu á sér spikið og fólkinu sem kom nálægt sviðinu og gerði þetta heimilislegra, tölum ekki um þau sem sungu með, gripu í mækinn og grýttu sér af sviðinu. Meira svona.
Þakklæti

This is what the press has been saying about us after our performances at the last year Iceland Airwaves festival:
"I Adapt never fail to deliver a great set. This time around they
played a new song (Ape City) and singer Birkir promised the audience a
brand new one would be premiered at Nasa on friday, adding a sarcastic
comment that this alone would justify the 7000 krónur entrance fee.
The audience went berserk to their new heavier sound, jumping from
chairs and crowd surfing and generally behaving as it was the best
time of their lives. Which it probably was. Their set ended as Birkir
dove right into the crowd, allowing them to carry him above their
heads." - Grapevine magazine
"So, what is this shit? Personal preference aside... who puts I Adapt,
a band that arguably performed the best at last years Airwaves, on at
20:45? At Nasa? A moron if I´ve ever heard of one... But anyway. I
Adapt delivered a great set to the select few. They performed a brand
new song which went down well with the select few who showed up. Their
sound is a lot more heavy-metal than before without losing their
distinctive hardcore sound. The people in attendance were probably,
funnily enough, the intelligent bunch of the Airwaves crowd - knowing
which bands to see. in short: I Adapt make your heart move like nobody
else can and if not... well... then your heart is somewhere it
shouldn´t be." -Grapevine magazine
Remember last bulleting including a quote from Kerrang! magazine. Well they had more to say about the subject:
".... There's a purity and unpretentiousness to te scene that you simply don't find in cities like London, New York or Los Angeles, and a joyous sense of music being made for music's own sake. Keep an eye out for the likes of We Made God, Gavin Portland and I Adapt in these pages in the weeks and months ahead ad thanks to everyone at Iceland Airwaves for one of the best weekends ever." - Kerrang!
We wonder if they will ever get in touch with us and do a I Adapt interview. God bless 'em.

The heathen Gods, Thor and Odin backed us up last year and got us into some mainstream media publications quite a few times. Here's the latest in aforementioned department, some glorious words we got the hold on.
From KERRANG! magazine:
ICELAND AIRWAVES '06
NASA, REYKJAVÍK, ICELAND
20.10.06
"OUR LIVES (KKK) warm up tonight's events wth their energetic blend of pop and metal. But their efforts are eclipsed by the kings of Iceland's hardcore scene I ADAPT (KKKK) wo reach a boiling point with their cathartic blasts of inventive hardcore. You wonder why they aren't higher placed on the bill..."
