Precious Metal: Torrential Downpour + Hooker Dragger @ Lit Lounge 060908

For the second time in the past six months (yep, I'm countin 'em boys), Rising Up/Rising Down cancelled their Precious Metal appearance. Ditto for Ohio's much anticipated black metal experimentalists, Bohemian Grove. Listening to Hooker Dragger, a new, local act, conjured up images of the sleazy underworld of crime, crackwhores and snuff films, a la 8MM. Their seedy and dirty style of death metal gave me chills like the first time I listened to Mortal Decay's debut, 'Sickening Erotic Fanaticism'. A welcome addition to the NYC scene! Torrential Downpour started with an atmostpheric intro which quickly careened into an onslaught of psychdelic grind. I was really getting into the music but the constant slow keyboard interludes really interrupted the flow and prevented them from really letting loose.
