Hated by the nation

Back to The Daily Grimd for more metal; this time courtesy of Toronto's Vilipend. Last time I saw them was at Mavericks on a bill with Black Faxes, Alaskan and The Great Sabatini. It was a shouty affair. I was wondering how singer Chris Gramlich would manage the somewhat confined space of The Daily Grind, since the space of the cafe is not much larger than the entirety of Mavericks' stage, but amazingly no one was bowled over ....

Hair-tossing action!

Chris gets a grip, Mike Crossley sings along.

Downstroking action with Derek J. Del Vecchio!

Mike jumps around near the merch station ... you know you have a tiny venue when there isn't space for a table.

They have a Montreal and Toronto show coming up next weekend ... no Ottawa that I can see, though.
