church of bones, formed in Connecticut in 2016 grace the stage with their unique blend of rock n' roll, doom, psychedelia and heavy blues influenced metal. While there isn't much to be found online about the band, they have maintained a good following in the Connecticut scene and I can see why after this show. Their energy was captivating, immediately engaging the audience and me. They played through their set, and all had the same elements of rock-influenced blues, creating a unique sound, something you don't hear in this area. Overall, Bone Church is a band on the Connecticut scene and I would recommend anyone who likes bluesy rock n' roll check them out.
Chase the cometthe heavy metal duo from Moscow, Russia have been making a name for themselves since 2016. Members Nika Comet and guitarist Alexander Mishustov booked a one-way ticket from Moscow to Los Angeles, California, leaving behind a successful band in their home country to follow their dreams in the states.
Since then, they have played various legendary Los Angeles venues such as 'Whiskey a Go-Go' (opening up for Michale Graves (ex-MISFITS) and Joe Lynn Turner (Deep Purple, Rainbow), 'Viper Room', 'Loaded' and events like the 'Tattoo Expo' at the Pomona Fairplex, Nika and Alex are also at home in front of the camera, successfully competing on a TV show (like 'American Idol').
During the performance, the band proved to be truly true to their slogan: “We don't have a genre, we create moods.” After some technical difficulties, the band put on a live set, playing some of their biggest hits 'Rage Inside' and 'Hero'. Each song told its own story and each one came with its own fun little dance moves from Nika. The crowd seemed to love the energy of the entire set, with many fans even signing along
Crobot formed in Pottsville, Pennsylvania in 2011 and quickly gained attention with their blend of hard rock, funk and metal. Their raw sound, combined with Brandon Yeagley's powerful vocals and the band's infectious energy, helped them stand out on the rock scene. With influences ranging from Led Zeppelin to Clutch, they have created a unique style that appeals to fans of classic rock and modern metal. Crobot's ability to combine heavy riffs with groove-driven beats makes them a major force in today's hard rock resurgence.
Crobot's show was a wild ride of high-energy rock and metal, full of eccentric flair that made the small venue feel electric. From the moment the band took the stage, opening their track “Metal”, the room was immediately filled with heavy, driving riffs and an undeniable sense of excitement. The singer captured the attention of the audience, constantly doing crazy tricks with the microphone, shaking the microphone stand as if it was part of the performance itself.
The entire set felt like a well-orchestrated storm, with the band feeding off the crowd's energy and giving it right back. Every song had the audience banging their heads. As they closed with “Without Wings”, the atmosphere shifted slightly to something more raw and emotional, providing a perfect end to an unforgettable night. The combination of technical talent, wacky showmanship and crowd devotion made this one of those rare shows that leaves you buzzing long after the lights go up.
CKYHis performance at Webster Underground was pure energy, combining gritty rock with the eccentric flair they are known for. Opening with “Rio Bravo”, the band immediately set the tone for the evening, with the crowd fully engaged, singing along to every word. Tracks like “96 Quite Bitter Beings” and “Flesh into Gear” rocked the room, while “Head For A Breakdown” kept the momentum going. CKYHis connection with the audience was incredible. they turned the intimate space into a full rock party.
CKYoriginally formed in 1998, has been a staple in the alternative rock and metal scenes for over two decades. Known for their involvement in the Jackass series and their collaborations with Bam Margera, their blend of hard rock, stoner metal and experimental sounds has set them apart. Throughout their careers, CKY has maintained a dedicated fan base, in part due to their ability to evolve while staying true to their core sound.
Their setlist drew from their entire discography, showcasing tracks from early releases while mixing in newer material from their 2017 album The Phoenix. The band's chemistry on stage, especially with longtime members Jess Margera and Chad I Ginsburg, is evident, proving they're as close as ever. CKY continues to be a force in rock, combining nostalgia with a fresh energy that leaves fans wanting more.
