Trap Them, Victims, Black Anvil & Black Breath @ Lit Lounge (Precious Metal) in NYC - pics

Trap Them
"Much like label brethren Trap Them (oft believed to be of Swedish origin), Victim's power lays in their earthy roar and their direct, fat free apocalyptic barrage that is built on the simplest of elements, i.e. rattling beats, pounding bass, stabbing riffs and, most importantly, raw, raw vox, frantically bellowed without respite. Unlike Trap Them, there appears to be no urge to push their sound forward into the 21st century, no, no, no, Victims seem content on raging as if it was 1989 against everything and everyone." [Teeth of the Divine]Victims, Trap Them, and Black Breath teamed up with Black Anvil to play Lit Lounge last night (5/25) as part of the previously discussed Precious Metal 3rd Anniversary Party. If you missed out, then save June 11th on your calendar, because all three (sans Black Anvil) will be in Brooklyn at The Charleston on that date. Tons of pics from last night's assault are below...

Sick show! Trap Them were so much more in their element than at the Gramercy show. Super intense.
Barney from Napalm Death was at the show. I was drunk and unable to keep my cool. I would just look at him sheepishly and at one point as we crossed paths I patted his shoulder and said "God Bless You." Heh, I would have never figured he would be the guy to get me starstruck, but there you go.
