2018-10-17 Albany, NY

Back on the proverbial train we roll onwards to night 2 in Albany - 10/17/18

A sick Crowd Control to open the show - sometimes this songs drags for me but this one is loaded with energy and has extra oomph behind it.

And then HOLY CRAP THIS CHALKDUST TORTURE IS INCREDIBLE!!!!!!!!

17 minutes of GRADE A explosive and upbeat Type II jamming with everyone going nuts. No dark ambiance here just extreme awesomeness.

SICK!  

I am enjoying the HELL out of this show. Up to Mercury currently.

Been a mixed bag so far (definitely a pick-and-choose show) but the peaks have been awesome. I've been headbanging/toe tapping hardcore for the last 2 hours now.

I think 10/16 so far is still the stronger show but the highlights of this are absolutely NOT to be missed.
