« Kvelertak played Europa & Saint Vitus on Friday (pics) | Wu-Tang Clan tour dates, Talib Kweli live pics & stuff »

It was quick and to the point on Sunday night (10/23) with two bands at Acheron as part of a post-CMJ hangover party. Richmond's Balaclava headlined adn ripped through material from their latest LP Crimes of Faith (Forcefield/Southern Lord) on the relatively early night, touching on doom, d-beat, and crust in one-fell-unique swoop. Gang Signs supported the quartet, with the NYC duo playing a hybrid of crust, death metal and Black Cobra-style booming riffery. It was a hell of a way to cap off the weekend.
Pictures from the show are below.

After enjoying a robust hummus platter, I often times enjoy some Baklava for dessert.
