True Believer - The Servant Tour - Crowbar Sydney 30th October
PHOTOS AND WORDS BY: MONIKA SMITH
Local lads Amammoth began the evening with what can only be best described as filthy and nasty stoner sludge. As the room began to warm up (or that could have been the lack of air-conditioning and a balmy Sydney eve) so did the crowd.
Continuing the night of sludginess were the Burial Pit lads also hailing from Sydney. With a tight set and intriguing tunes that draw you in; they are a band to keep an eye on.
Acrolysis flipped the switch of pace swinging in a different direction by slapping us in our side face holes with an 80’s thrash metal vibe with a sweet twist of fast paced explosion.
Finishing off the night were Melbournian lads True Believer on their The Servant Tour (They’re in Brisbane tonight 31st October at Crowbar and November 2nd at Last Chance in Melbourne).
Gabriel on lead vocals and guitar obliterates your eardrums with his powerful voice box whilst his brother Luke tears his guitar to shreds and pipes in with some occasional vocals. With the energetic Duane (or is it a bass playing Kirk Hammett? You will have to go to a show to find out!) smashing it out on bass and throwing all sorts of shapes. Finally with Lach’s perfect precision on the drums; rounds out True Believer into a tasty and saucy heavy metally/rocktastic eruption that your eyes, ears and mind will thank you for being part of.
