Friday (May 15th) night Wolves in the Throne Room played at the Triple Rock in Minneapolis. The show was amazing and transformed the familiar tropes of metal into an apocalyptic pagan ritual. The music –– propulsive and trance inducing — possessed the audience… flailing bodies, devil signs, and flying hair became part of a mass magical invocation… or an eschatological funerary rite for a dying civilization… Empires, Krallice and Zebulon Pike opened.
Here are a couple of drawings:
