The Demon Hunter is Searching for a Living Sacrifice

After seeing Anthrax and Iron Maiden the night before (May 30th), what better way to cleanse the soul than seeing 2 of the best Christian metal bands ever! Demon Hunter and LIVING SACRIFICE!! That's right, they are back! I was super excited about this night because Living Sacrifice has been one of my favorite bands for a long time, plus I have been a fan of the Clark Brothers ever since Training for Utopia. Remember that band? Unreal! Anyway, their latest band, Demon Hunter, is insanely good and they destroy every venue they play at. So you can see why I was so pumped for this show. I unfortunately missed Advent because I drove back out to Irvine to buy myself and TJ from War of Ages epic Iron Maiden tour shirts. And I do mean epic. You will probably see TJ rockin' his on a stage near you soon!

Needless to say, I really wanted to shoot some of these guys for my Faces of Music project. Things were way hectic after the show, but thanks to my buddy and Punk Rock, Hardcore Extraordinaire, Dylan Johnson, he was able to round up Jon Dunn of Demon Hunter, Alec Barainca and Patrick Judge of the Demon Hunter road crew and Bruce Fitzhugh of Living Sacrifice for me to shoot for my project, as well as himself. And thanks to my assistant Shaun Centers, we got Bob Martinez who works the door at the Glass House and Joseph Meersseman who does merch for Oh Sleeper. I also shot Mike Ojeda who is the General Manager for the Glass House and then Sonny Nigro who owns Needles and Pins Records. I owe Shaun another shout out for his gift of finding power outlets. He actually got someone who has a place along the alley to let us plug in from their place. It was completely random that he actually knew someone who was over at the time, but it all worked out and Shaun is the man! Another late night, but when is it not? Enjoy the photos!
