The second show I went was a little different than the hard rock/progressive sound of Divided Symmetry. I went to see Begrime Exemious and Death Toll Rising - two death metal bands hailing from the frozen wastelands of Edmonton. Both bands put on a great show. The stage was too small, forcing them to play on the floor, with the mosh pit becoming a living, breathing organism, feeding off the energy poured forth by the bands, becoming ever more intense. This growing intensity fed back into the bands, spurring them on like some sort self-fueling machine of metal fury. Needless to say, I got knocked around a bit, feared for my camera gear for a bit, but it was a ton of fun, and resulted in some great photos.
