Although they weren’t on the same ticket, I was able to catch an unorthodox double-feature in Alpha Wolf and Sepultura playing the same venue in St. Pete, on back to back nights.

Alpha Wolf was first on October 1st, and it’s always a pleasure watching them tear it up. They were definitely the heaviest band on the bill, but I and many others, were definitely there for it.

Sepultura was the next night and proved why they are a staple in the genre and still tearing it up 40 years later. Some of the sound issues we experienced with the venue the previous night were absolutely gone with the experienced crew and tight ship these guys run. Absolute legends.

Electric Wizard live was a positively overwhelming, yet euphoric experience. The nature of the heavy, droning “doom” metal with the dozens of flashing lights and imagery of satanic, horror and colored effects playing across the background, added up to an evening that I cannot say I’ve ever seen before. I certainly look forward to experiencing it again though.
