Despite those issues, the performance itself was great. Industrial is an area in which I am not terribly well versed in, but despite that shortcoming the show was fantastic. Loud, uncompromising, very little playing to the crowd, just a machine like presence suiting the still. Displaying an image of non-conformism mixed with musical prowess, Sascha commanded attention ripping into song after song. Lucia performed crowd control moving to the rhythms emitting from the monitors, pacing around the stage like a world leader delivering an address. The dual guitars taking their place on the left and right flanks providing air support. All while the drums laid down sonic bombs from the back.

It was an experience I was glad to have partaken in. Despite the technical issues, what came across sounded excellent. The crowd was enthusiastic and very much into the show. The lights made it a bit tough for me to get any good photos, but if you click the link below you can see some of the better shots I came away with.

The bottomline is, if you have the opportunity to see them live, do it, you will not be disappointed. I may have to go dig up some more of their albums.

Photos from the show are here.

Good shit Chris! If they ever hit Montreal (or Burlington, VT) I'll make an effort to check 'em out. Liked the dazed pov of your review. Honest, and powerful! Thanks!

The photos that loaded for me looked cool indeed!
