Shatterpoint at The Attic

Its been a while since I've seen Shatterpoint play.. And this time bass player, Sandy Wardrop, had an interesting outfit choice after arriving from a drama related event, but once they start playing Shatterpoint can wear whatever they like.. Describing themselves as "bringing the genre of metal back to it bluesy, boozy roots, pouring out grizzly, testosterone filled tunes thickly coated in slick groove".
The influences break through with Pantera-loving guitarist, Mark Graham channelling his energy into his sound, aided by the distinctive vocals of Ed Stone and the drumming of Tom Harrison. Despite the small crowd, these guys aim to please.. even through improvising a song on the spot, and starting with a bluesy number. Shatterpoint should know they've got something good going.
