July 30th 2017, The Viper Room, West Hollywood CA: Vol. 8 of our series of Metal Assault Nights at The Viper Room was finally upon us last Sunday, after having been booked and set in stone a long time ago. This was different from the shows we’ve put together so far, and the first of its kind for us, where all the bands belonged to the same record label. This was a showcase event for fast-rising metal label M-Theory Audio, and featured an all-extreme, all-killer lineup headed by Menifee CA pagan death metal band Helsott and supported by Bay Area death metal group Apothesary, Las Vegas death/thrash band Sicocis, and Lake Forest CA black metal outfit Empyrean Throne. Extreme metal on the Sunset Strip on a Sunday night isn’t quite the most popular live entertainment option, but the diehards came out in decent number and raged hard to give these fine talented bands the response and welcome they deserved. Our man C. Jones was in attendance to capture some images for us. Check them out below, follow these bands and their label, and mark your calendars for the next Metal Assault Night!
