Featured Review

I have seen big ticket names before - Tool, NIN, Deftones, Thrice, Foo Fighters, A Perfect Circle, Silverchair, etc.
This was by far the best show I've been to. The amount of energy this band brought to the stage as unparalleled, even compared to younger bands.
The venue was absolutely packed, but that hardly diminished my enjoyment of the show. Refused connected with the crowd in a way few bands do. My only regret is that I didn't get tickets for both shows.

Absolutely amazing show! I was fully entertained and moshing the entire time. They can still play just as well if not better then they did back in the 90's!

Excellent show. The opening band were good for what they do. Not my thing but they put on a good show for the Edmonton crowd. But the build up into Refused set was intense. I've seen and hung out with these guys in '97 on their Songs to Fan the Flames of Discontent album tour (in Minneapolis, MN) but this time around, they were older and more mature, and definitely a more serious band. It was nice to see them put their last album to justice. I never did see Dennis perform with the International Noise Conspiracy but I could tell he got much better as a performer. The way he threw his microphone around and catching it all the time flawlessly. It was definitely the most entertaining show I've seen in the last decade.

So good!! Saw them in Montreal at the Metropolis and Toronto at the Sound Academy...The Sound Academy is probably the worst venue of all time, except I had VIP balcony tickets which were worth every penny..Thank you Refused for coming to Canada!

I am so happy I was able to see Refused play a show. I only found out about them after they had broken-up and didn't think I would ever have an opportunity to see them live.
This show was one of the most energetic and intense shows I've been to in a long time. At the time it reminded me of Marilyn Manson's Antichrist Superstar tour, the first show at the Guvernment. Pure and unbridled mayhem!

Refused had the perfect amount of energy for this long-awaited show. The songs were tight, energetic and well played. They played for a good amount of time, there was a decent amount of audience interaction but they didn't talk too much. The stage looked amazing, especially with their curtain at the beginning and the lights were done perfectly. They played all the hits and everyone in the audience was satisfied! My only issue is that they played Summerholidays vs Punkroutines kind bad, which is my favourite song! The rest was really tight though. DEFINITELY worth it.

One of the greatest live sets that I have ever seen. I waited 14 years to see this band and it turned out to be more than worth the wait!

It did not hurt that Off! were the opening act.
