Vancouver’s UBC Thunderbird Arena was shaken to life this long weekend, thanks to a stacked lineup of some of metal’s heaviest hitters of the modern millennia.
As if a night headlined by the southern brutes in Lamb of God, backed by the iconic Killswitch Engage wasn’t enough to get Vancouverites headbanging to the point of whiplash — up-and-coming deathcore act Fit For An Autopsy and the return BC’s own, Spiritbox, left us all sore and smiling for Thanksgiving Monday.
From breakdowns and blast beats to gutturals and near operatics, Lamb Of God’s ‘Omens’ tour kick-off, had everything a metalhead of any age could wish for. The pyrotechnics, strobes, stage banter, and hit-spattered setlists, were the cherries on top of a perfectly hellish evening.
