Metal men

I popped over to the House of Targ for some perogies and heavy metal (in that order, I was hungry). I'd already seen Droid perform in the basement of 612 Gladstone, and Flying Fortress on a couple of occasions, but opener Canceric was new to me. The band hails from Montreal and do the growly death-thrash thing so popular with the kids.



Then they turned on the smoke machine.



Nightmarish action!



Vocal action!



Fretless bass action!



Pointy guitar action!



Hairy action!



Hair-tossing action!



More smoke!



More backup vocals!



Things stayed smokey for Flying Fortress's set.



Leigh from World War Four was filling in on drums for this set.



Brandon sings!



Bonus Brandon!



More Leigh!



On to Droid, a band well in the tradition of Voivod. "This next song is about space."



Fretful bass action!



Flying V action!



Percussive action!



Robotic action!



A fun, loud night.
