Cosmic Cortex
Black Future
Tetrastructural Minds
Echoless Chamber
Deoxyribonucleic Acid
Outer Isolation
Asteroid

Short set due to venue running late + booking a later event (show was over at 7). That said, I arrived in time to chug a PBR and watch Battlemaster, who killed it. Also the venue was a tiny Ethiopian restaurant, it was so tiny only the drums could fit on the stage, so it was super intimate. After Tetrastructural Minds, I called out for Echoless Chamber and the frontman said something to the effect of "yeah we didn't write a setlist so call out whatever you want", so the last four songs were all requests. Totally got my hair snagged in Erik's guitar during the start of Echoless, he was really cool about it. Asking if *I'm * ok while I'm the one fucking up their set

Anyway killer show, Vektor are the kings of modern thrash hands down.

The venue was RAS Hall. It is actually not an Ethiopian place but a Rastafarian restaurant (aka Jamaican) but they have paintings and photos of former Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie all over the walls because in their religion they think he was the second coming of Christ.

The show was put on by Metal Squad Party Force which has a FB group set up here. They'll invite you to other shows they put on in and around DC if you join.
