After a busy few months, Fearless Vampire Killers
have set out once again on their Unbreakable Hearts tour. We caught
all the action at the Hub in Plymouth.
This was our first time witnessing Embers of Eden and what a treat it was.
The vocals produced by Alex Dumbiotis
made a perfect combination that fully complimented her powerful, strong voice
and personality. They held great stage presence and what can we say about Oli White? He has some insane shredding
skills due to his flawless guitar techniques. All in all, Embers of Eden’s
overall performance was incredible and we were blown away; they are definitely
ones to watch.

Up next was Myth
City whose sound hinted a bit of Rage
Against The Machine. They impressed the audience with their stage presence
and high energy that created a good vibe, however, the overall performance
didn’t really grab out attention because honestly, we got bored halfway through as it became too predictable. Also, the screaming element was more like
screeching as it pierced our ears, which made us want to leave.

German five piece Annisokay bounded on to the stage and gave us a big slap in the
face with the great vocal combinations between Dave Grunewald and Christoph
Wieczorak. They too had fantastic stage presence so interactions with the
crowd were easier. There was a great musical balance and structure in their
set, which was shown through Day To Day
Tragedy, as everything gelled together. They were amazing and we need to
see them again.

Cheers roared throughout the venue as the Fearless Vampire Killers unleashed
their talents on the excited crowd. As Neon
in the Dance Halls, All Hallows Evil
and oldie Fetish for the Finite
rang
through the building, the energy levels from everyone increased while each song
past. Laurence Beveridge and Kier Kemp heavily interacted with the
audience who sung back every lyric with such passion and enthusiasm; it was
intoxicating. Kier and Luke Illingworth
performed Brave the Night that
exposed all sorts of emotion and was heart warming as it felt as if we were
supporting each other.

Fearless Vampire Killers’ hour on stage finally came to
an end, however, they soon were summoned back by echoing chants of “FVK!” Their
response was by performing one last song; At
War with the Thirst, that was sucked in tight by all their fans. It was a
brilliant performance overall with exquisite talent and flawlessness. We are extremely pleased this band is doing so well and of course we got to
see them so locally.
