This was the long awaited gig that would blast the cobwebs out
of a lazy metal scene.
It was an event to mark the release of Pathogen's second
demo, 'Nightfall',
and those boys sure know how to throw a heavy gig.
.
The pitch fever of the evening welcomed the five members of Pathogen
on to the stage.
Their efforts and hard work leading up to this moment were congratulated
by the
400 plus punters that had turned out to celebrate the occasion
with them.
Featuring blistering vocals courtesy of Tim, sharp technical guitar
work
by axegrinders Dave and Aidan, thunder pumping bass from
Louis (aka Jesus) and the accented skin pounding by Gavin,
Pathogen worked their way through Warchild, Bleed My Soul,
My Little Cow, and others off their Nightfall demo.
.
With the average age of this band being only 19,
Pathogen compete with other bands within the genre with
an added edge,
they're driven by a more contemporary metal sound that is
new, fresh and proving to be the new flavour in what makes great
metal. Still, their road is long and wide, and judging by the
progression between their two released demos, they are definitely
progressing at a healthy rate.
.
Playing hard and with lots of heart, Pathogen broke it off
with the title track off their demo, Nightfall,
before coming back to rock us
one more time with an encore.
.
As heroes fade we are introduced to the new ones.
They be Pathogen...
