NYC’s own @immolation_band kicked off the evening in front of an energetic hometown crowd packed with friends and family, showcasing their new album Descent alongside a handful of tried and true classics. Transfixed from the first song to the last, I was blown away by @rottingchristofficial. Their riffs were as soaring and epic as they were relentlessly ruthless. A standout set of the evening. Deicide brought us into the home stretch with their legendary bellowing brutality. Favoring the classics, the band treated fans to a career-spanning setlist with particular focus on their self-titled debut, as well as follow-ups Legion and Once Upon the Cross. The pit had been active all night, but Deicide turned it up a few notches as crowd surfers rode the tide in increasing numbers. Approaching the one-year anniversary of @behemothofficial’s latest album, The Shit Ov God, the band opened their set just as the album does with “The Shadow Elite.” The force with which they swept the stage set the bar for the evening at a height only Behemoth could reach, and at times even exceed. @narcoticwastelandofficial took the stage to a packed room of fans eager to mosh themselves warm.
