You've heard them many times at +SALVATION+, now you can see them live!
I drove all the way from KY trying to find Salvation. Mistakenly thought it was at Rutledge because the same banner is on both sites. Didn't have a phone number or anyone to ask. What a night...
With an assembly that includes members of Ministry (Warner Bros.) and Thrill Kill Kult (Rykodisc), it's obvious project .44 has a firm grasp on the aggro/industrial/tek metal scene...
