That's what I would do but you're preaching to the wrong crowd here.

Exactly. So Go away.


If you really like Nero's releases seeing them live was pretty cool, plus yeah i saw them in April and they combined alot of other genres like even Hip-Hop into their set. Which made it pretty refreshing too.

Nice, 1mco, very polite.

No contest, Clarke EVERY TIME. He was killing it years before these guys and will be doing the same years after,

I've not seen Knife Party yet, and I've seen Nero a few times now. Based on that, I'd say Knife Party.

In all honesty, I enjoyed Nero's performances, but I've never been blown away. Production wise there are some tracks I absolutely adore, but it's still nothing fantastic on the DJing front. So that's my 2 cents there.

I've seen Pendulum a few times as well, and felt the same way. (I just reference them as they have semi-morphed into Knife Party at this point).

But consider me a DnB head with a care for Dubstep and Moombah and the like. I have a feeling Knife Party is going to be bringing a lot more new, interesting material to the table than Nero, but I could be wrong.

I'd go see Knife Party.

thanks for all your replies.

i went to see nero and wasn't disappointed. they played on the big stage with a huge light rig / science fiction stuff syned to their music. i wouldn't consider what they've done great djing but it was an amazing show. dropped hard dubstep and drumstep through their whole set and everybody went nuts. along with benga, flux pavillion and schlachthofbronx those were the best sets of the weekend. nero definitly won the show category :)

I saw knife party in brooklyn in the beginning of June. Those guys put on a great fucking show... very high energy. They are kinda dickish tho... my buddy was opening for them and they were really bitchy/snobish.
