Isis, Melvins & Totimoshi @ Webster Hall - pics & setlists

words by BBG, photos by Lori Baily

“Totimoshi, Melvins, Isis @ Webster Hall. Why would
I not be here? #fuckyeah.” – Aaronzeem

“After Totimoshi, the Melvins hit the stage! I was expecting Isis to be next, as they were always billed as the support act, and, honestly, the Melvins are just more important. But, I’m guessing the groups are alternating for the stint they’re doing together, which I guess makes sense, especially since, as mentioned before, Isis is breaking up.” [An Uncontrollable Urge]

Just three more dates. As I type this, Isis is putting a close on another show, getting closer and closer to closing the book on the highly influential post-metal band, for good. This past Friday (6/18), the band played one of their final shows at Webster Hall with Totimoshi and the Melvins. It was part of a two date stay in NYC (which continued at MHOW on Saturday – photo set on the way). Photos from Webster Hall, where Isis’s headlining set got cut short due to Webster Hall’s weekend curfew, are in this post.

Mike Hill of Tombs recently interviewed Aaron Turner of Isis. Part one of that interview is posted, with a second and equally fascinating part on the way.
