Sick Puppies at Highline Ballroom
"On Tuesday night (11 August) Sick Puppies took the stage at New York's meatpacking district stage Highline Ballroom, as part of their Powered By Samsung tour in support of their sophomore release 'Tri-Polar' last month on RMR/Virgin/EMI.
Shim, Emma and Mark took to the stage just a little after 9 pm and melted the crowd's collective face with a hail storm of rock. Anyone expecting Free Hugs cuteness were in for a surprise as the band tore into their set, with a heaviness that was more metal than emo, that left more than one jaw on the floor.
With new songs like 'You're Going Down' and 'Street Fighter War', the band bring a new maturity, hardness and grit to their music, and even their melodic Free Hugs anthem 'All the Same' had a new gritty patina next to the fist pumping screamers on the new album.
The crowd was a sea of fans, holding their cell phones and cameras aloft to capture the high energy show, and the chorus in the audience after the last notes faded was, "That was the best rock show I've ever seen."
The band stuck around to meet fans, sign autographs and pose for pictures. Check out pictures from the show below."
