Their set at the show was a short one, and a little less refined then the second opener and Thy Art Is Murder themselves. That being said they made up for It with their energy on stage.

now on to the headliner we al had been waiting for THY ART IS MURDER.

Thy Art Is Murder is a Deadcore band from Australia. Consisting of CJ McMahon, Jesse Beahler, Kevin Butler, Andy Marsh and Sean Delander.

Their set started with a dark stage and “We Like to Party” by the Vengaboys blasting trough the Soundsystem. After this song the band entered the stage and started playing “Death Squad Anthem” and “Make America Hate Again”. Thereafter singer CJ McMahon proclaim the band would play some more poppy songs. Resulting in laughter from the crowd and the band started to play songs like “Shadow of Eternal Sin”, “The Song of Misery” and Light Bearer.

Then CJ proclaimed he had to piss to which the crowd replied that he should go, so CJ ran of stage while the rest of the band started the intro for “Dear Desolation”.

Right at the beginning of “Fur And Claw” a crowd surfer was caught on stage while the band had stopped playing, quickly trying to get off stage he was stopped by CJ who showed the set list telling the crowd surfer that he had to make a little speech before the song and he could only jump while the band played. So, while CJ was talking one of the other bandmembers gave him a beer and he jump when the band started playing. Finishing their set with songs like “New God’s” “Puppet Master” and of course “Human Target”
