Scream and shout

I caught a double header of heavy metal at House of Targ heading into last weekend. Friday's show featured locals Black Tower, Montreal's Warsenal and cheerful Swedish power metal combo Screamer. First up, Black Tower - here's Erin with some blackened vocal action!

Screamer pack big metal sounds with some seriously melodic vocal work - these guys like their harmonies! They might also be the most cheerful looking band I've ever seen on stage. Here's singer Andreas, bassist Fredrik and guitarist Anton!
