I took in a decent new metal band called Caste of Shadows, Oct. 1 at packed Bo Diddley’s.
I missed the first band, but was glad to have caught Caste of Shadows.
They had a tonne of energy and old school metal chops, a
charismatic, crazy frontman, who was carrying a strong metal melody, when you could hear it, in between leaping all over the stage and on the railings, not that I could hear it as he was
drowned out by his band, who provided a hot double guitar attack backed by thunderous drums and a strong bass groove.
They played an intense set and seemed to be winding down to make way for the Living Luca, before I had to leave.
