Aviana took the stage with a commanding presence to start the show. The band has an iconic stage look with them baring masks to keep their identities hidden for all members but the lead singer, same with names. The band is from Sweden and consists of singer Joel Holmqvist, guitarist Death, bassist Fear, and drummer Dark. The bands latest album is “Void” which was released in 2025. They put on an incredible performance and got the crowd ready for the next band of the evening.

Caskets took the stage next with an electric powerhouse performance as well. The British based band delivered an awesome performance, with singer Matthew Flood, guitarist Benjamin Wilson, drummer James Lazenby, and bassist Craig Robinson. They started off under the name “Captives” till 2022, until they switched to the current name. The band only has 3 albums, but they sure know how to put on a show. The crowd was eagerly awaiting the headliners of the night, and after an exciting time with Caskets, it was time for them to get it.

ERRA took the stage with an explosive start kicking off their set. The band performed many songs from their newest album, released earlier this month, titled “Silence Outlives the Earth”. The crowd turned into a sea with crowdsurfers coming to the front and a mosh pit opening up wider and wider in the back. They started in Alabama and have been around since 2009, the band consists of singer J.T. Cavey, guitarist Jesse Cash, bassist Conor Hesse, guitarist Clint Tustin, and drummer Alex Ballew. They have cited bands such as August Burns Red for their influences on their music, which can be described as progressive metal. The band played hits like “Snowblood”, “Drift”, “Further Eden”, and many more popular songs. They ended the set with the crowd begging for more, but knowing that there was still one band left to take the stage that night.

Currents concluded the sold out show with a magical energy. The Connecticut band took the stage like they owned it, with beautiful lighting and their captivating sound. The band formed in 2011 and while no original members remain, don’t let that fool you into thinking they aren’t about business. From singer Brian Wille insane vocals, to guitarists Ryan Castaldi and Chris Wiseman, bassist Christian Pulgarin, and drummer Matt Young all come together to form a solid sound and presence. The band released an EP on Halloween of 2025 called “All that follows”, which is the latest release from them. Their set included top hits like “Better days”, “Remember me”, and “Kill the Ache”. The band closed out the evening on such a high note and had the crowd chanting for me by the end of it.
