If you jump over to their Facebook page and do some internet band stalking, you’ll notice that Sean Joyce is involved in the project, so get stoked because he does damn good audio work. Maybe we will get to listen to some of the bands new material!
Let’s not forget Drowning In The Platte and Ghosts Of Ruin. Two bands that kick ass and bring the metal! DITP have a very dark underground sound filled with songs about brutal happenings mostly involving bring at the wrong place, around the wrong time… near the river. Ghosts Of Ruin, a metal band from Omaha, Nebraska, complete this lineup with their interesting sound that mixes the stylings of metal, metalcore and progressive genres. So with all that said, this is one excellent event to get pumped up about.
While attending make your way to the beer garden and check out Dillon’s Diabolical Designs on-location artwork exhibition. Just look for the massive black tent filled with artwork and some t-shirt artwork. Artist Dillon Stienike’s artwork fits right in with the environment of a classic metal show. If you like monsters, creatures, brutality and more… you’ll be good to go.
