Huron, Idiom and Skindred at Vault Rugby 17/12/12

Opening this extraordinary evening of metal was Huron, who formed in 2007. They instantly got the crowd warmed up, with huge riffs and energetic band members. Sean Palmer has a heavy sounding voice which was enjoyable to listen to and he was eager to get the crowd involved with their performance. Every song they played sounded unique, and they definitely impressed the crowd in Rugby. Expect big things from Huron soon.

Next up was Idiom, an alternative metal band from Devon. Matt Sharland has a unique vocal style which made Idiom interesting to watch perform live. They played their latest single, ‘Braindead’, which has a slight nu metal feel to it, and is available for free via their website. They were also an extremely energetic band and if you want to listen to something new and fresh then I recommend that you check them out.

Skindred were last on stage, but by no means least. Being one of the biggest bands to ever play in Rugby there were extremely high expectations from both the audience and critics, but Skindred were even more incredible than anyone ever expected. Benji Webbe has an amazing stage presence and it’s almost impossible to keep your eyes off him. They played classic hits, such as ‘Pressure’ and ‘Nobody’, which the crowd loved, and also many songs from their latest album, ‘Union Black’, such as ‘Doom Riff’ and ‘Cut Dem’. Skindred are known as one of the best live bands in the metal scene, and tonight at Vault in Rugby they proved exactly why they are. With passionate riffs, incredible vocals and catchy songs, they’re a band any metal fan needs to see before they die.
