Crimes against photography

With Ottawa Explosion, done, I headed off to Pressed for some heavy sounds. Ryan of Coliseum has a new band, called Fotocrime, and since previous shows by his other outfit were such killers I had to go and see what he's been up to lately. Ultra Love had already begun their set when I walked in. Here's Pascale on guitar!

Eric hits! If memory serves, he was also in Embassies of Denmark way back when.

And so on!

More Nicole!



Tyler hits!



Extra Kevin!



Destructive action!



Fotocrime played a fantastic set - a real treat for fans of groups like Killing Joke, Tau Cross and Sisters of Mercy. They also had an interesting DIY lighting setup and tons of smoke. It did make photography a little tricky. For example, here's a picture of Ryan.



Okay, now a somewhat better picture.



You get the idea ... it looked really cool in person!



Guitar action with Nick!



Nick sings!



Ryan adjusts!



Bass action with Shelley!



Shelley sings!



Here's the view from the back of the room.



A great set.
