This gallery contains 60 photos.

Exactly one week after the release party of “Annihilation” (see here), REVOLUTION WITHIN played a similar show headlining the Bulldozer Fest at Canecas. The few differences is that I managed more photos, INFRAKTOR–Katito and SWITCHTENSE–Hugo weren’t guest s, and singer … Continue reading
