All shots taken at Groundworks Tucson, 1/30/26.
Below: Kryge. All out Metal mechanics. Instrumental wildness pulling from various strands. The drummer is a slayer!
Above: Xasthur plays an astute and singular blending of their earlier one man Black Metal with American Primitive guitar techniques. Intense focus and concentration paired with humbleness in the face of the music. So happy Xashtur came to Tucson.
Below: Kayo Dot bring symphonic technical Sludge and sad boi vocals. Many elements, some of which got a bit lost in the mix at times. This band needs a bigger stage.
A great evening of Avant Garde Metal at a venue which is becoming a kind of venerable one in Tucson, what with its gallery, 'zine collections and down to earth staff.
