I knew where I was going to be Saturday night when I heard that Token was reuniting (maybe for the last time ever?) to perform at the Dominion Tavern with Calgary's The Mandates and local thrashers World War 4.
The Mandates played at Ottawa Explosion this year, and for some crazy reason decided to fly in and play some other shows in the region (Montreal, etc.). As before they covered the Dead Boys and made me think a bit of the Real Kids.

Then, it was on to thrashier stuff.
And by thrashier I mean metalpunk revivalists World War 4 - another band I first laid eyes on at the 2013 edition of Ottawa Explosion. Here's some rhythm section action with Leigh and Michael!

Orca wasn't around for the Cafe DeKcuf show I caught at OWX13, but the band was up to full strength last night.
