Live Kult: HIGH ON FIRE “Blessed Black Wings,” “Nemesis” and “Turk”

Posted in Live Kult, Videos

Matt Pike

Album

On February 10, 2008, when Oakland’s High On Fire came thundering into New York to play Brooklyn’s Club Europa in support of their latest album, Death Is This Communion, MetalKult braved the cold weather and packed crowds to document this event. When all was said and done, and we finally looked at the footage we shot…we were sure glad we did. High On Fire’s guitarist Matt Pike, drummer Des Kensel and bassist Jeff Matz did not disappoint.

Below, check out the power trio as they deliver bone-crushing performances of “Blessed Black Wings,” “Nemesis” and “Turk.”

    I saw High on Fire this summer and have had “Communion” on heavy rotation since then. I will be in the front row of the 5/6 concert at the Aragon Brawlroom as HoF begins the Gigantour lineup. Can’t wait, and will bring my battleaxe too!
