We had a ball for our first time playing the Tivoli! Thanks to COG and the organisers, it sure was a doozy of a night. Here’s a couple of reviews and a bunch of photos of us from the festival 🙂

I make it back to the main Roadsick stage just in time for The Wrath who take the stage and instantly grab everyone’s attention with their very own brand of horror punk rock. The dual guitars and double bass rock out the punk rock riffs hard and the drums maintain a solid beat to pull it all together.
Frontman Tommy owns the stage travelling from side to side and front to back and Deano gives me a quick wink as I head to the front of the stage to get a little more involved. That wasn’t creepy at all. I’m trying to figure what he is going to climb this time around as he usually finds somewhere dubious to position himself, and let’s be honest, he needs to do something to draw every male in the room’s eyes from Carina on guitar at the other side of stage. This band is always one hell of a good time, and they try a new track out on the crowd which is an absolute banger to which the crowd respond with a massive cheer as the track closes out. A slower track follows and shifts the mood back a little, but as the next song rocks off Deano leaves the stage and runs amok in the crowd riffing like a madman before making his way back for some “woah woah woahs”. The last couple of tracks rock out like a mother fucker and Tommy invites the crowd to come get drunk with them after the set, but not before Deano positions himself precariously on top of the side-fill speaker stack. It’s always carnage, but one day one of those speaker stacks is gonna fall and’s it’s gonna be absolute carnage. We can only hope though, can’t we!

The Wrath brought a level of theatre to the rock show, with their psychobilly rock and roll that was just pure fun. They’re a name I’d heard a bit about before the day, but had no idea what I was walking into. Awesome, awesome stuff.
