After a several year hiatus forced by incarceration and the untimely death of guitarist Joshua Tshirlig, Horror Show played their only US appearance last weekend at Philly’s infamous First Unitarian Church basement before heading overseas for their first ever European tour. We’re going to keep this write-up brief, as we are preparing one of the most in-depth Horror Show interviews ever, complete with never-before-seen photos, music, and more.
Today we are here to celebrate the visual representation of a show that will go down as one of the most emotional and energetic shows in Philadelphia Hardcore history. Hosted by Joe Hardcore and his Philly Hardcore Shows group, Philly once again found itself at the epicenter of hardcore music. We are beyond stoked to offer you an massive 100+ photo gallery from the perspective of two of Philadelphia’s most talented photographers, Anne Spina and Dante Torrieri.
Don’t forget to check back later this week for the definitive Horror Show interview, brought to you exclusively by Blow The Scene.
This bill was rounded out by Break Away, Bunk, and Philly’s Wrong Answer, who are currently on their way Europe with Kingdom for a 6-week tour.
