The Plot In You USA Tour Part One 11.24.2024

In August, The Plot In You announced their upcoming USA Tour featuring Currents, Zero 9:36, and Wind Walkers. The first leg of the tour includes 13 dates, kicking off on November 8th. They indicated that these performances would be the last of their 2024 touring season. Recently, they announced that in 2025, they would return for the second leg of the tour, which will include Holding Absence, Boundaries, and Acres. If you weren’t in Buffalo for this show on Saturday night, you missed out. As I made my way to the venue, I noticed fans streaming in excitedly. While I was getting my equipment ready, I could see them gathering around the barricade, eagerly waiting for what the night would bring. If you missed the first leg, be sure to grab your tickets now for the second leg in a city near you! I was fortunate enough to attend the sold-out show in Buffalo at Buffalo RiverWorks.

Hailing from central Massachusetts, Wind Walkers aims to reshape the world of post-hardcore and alternative metal music. The band comprises Timothy Comeau and Neil Comeau on guitar, Craig Martin on the bass, and Ethan Cheesman on drums. A turning point in their journey was marked by the arrival of vocalist Trevor Borg, who brought a new dynamic to their sound. I couldn’t find much on the band, but I was surprised that they are less than 300,000 followers away from having a million followers on Spotify. Since Wind Walkers debut in 2015, they have 2 EPs & 2 studio albums. More recently they have released 2 new singles called “Hangfire” & “Bodybag.” They were also featured on the album Genesis by Fairlane alongside other artists such as Silverstein & Point North. Wind Walkers were the first band of the night, setting the tone for the remainder of the show as they took the stage. The fans were ready to rock out, and I was among them, excited by the energy this group brought to their performance. During the 2nd song, “Dead Talk” they had one of their friends come out onto the stage and scream the song with the band, It was awesome seeing a female screamer in a male-dominated field. Wind Walkers played six songs: “The Overlook”, “Dead Talk”, “Feeding The Gods”, “Drowning Hymns”, “Bodybag”, and “Hangfire”. My favorite songs from their set were “Bodybag” and “Hangfire”.

Matthew Cullen goes by the stage name Zero 9:36, he is an American rapper and rock musician from Langhorne, Pennsylvania. Zero 9:36 has released 3 studio albums, the latest being None Of Us Are Getting Out released in 2024 & one EP released in 2019 called You Will Not Be Saved. He has had incredible accolades such as having Ice Nine Kills feature on his original song “Adrenaline.” has been featured on “Strangers” by Theory Of A Deadman & most recently featured on “Save Me” by Ekoh. While looking into Zero 9:36, I felt a surge of excitement about what he would bring to this show. There aren’t many artists who blend rock and rap, but I've enjoyed listening to a few others in this space, particularly Ekoh and Phix. I was surprised by Zero’s performance, it kind of gave me Linkin Park vibes but new age & different. He was accompanied by a drummer & a guitarist to bring the show to life. A bunch of fans at the barricade were thrilled to see him perform live, this was when the wave of crowd surfers started to begin. Even though Zero 9:36 was sick, he stated that he still wanted to give his all for one of the last days of this tour, I commend him for pushing through even though he stated “If I sound like shit, no I didn’t.” He played a bunch of songs that I enjoyed especially since this was an artist I had never listened to before the show. My favorite song from the set was “Kill Me” & of course, the crowd went wild when they played “Adrenaline.”

Currents is a metalcore band hailing from Newtown, Connecticut, established in 2011 by ex-drummer Jeff Brown. The band has undergone several changes in its lineup over the years and currently features vocalist Brian Wille, guitarists Ryan Castaldi and Chris Wiseman (who is also the founding guitarist of Shadow of Intent), bassist and backing vocalist Christian Pulgarin, and drummer Matt Young. Despite the absence of any original members in the group, the band has continued to find success. They have released three albums and three EPs, along with a wide range of singles such as "The Death We Seek," "Sleep Paralysis," "Poverty of Self," and "So Alone." Currents was the third band to hit the stage, I hadn't seen them perform since they went on tour with We Came As Romans, & The Plot In You back in 2018, I was excited to see how the band had evolved since then, After the first three songs played and the photographers were out of the pit, the number of crowd surfers that came through was insane, I kept seeing this one particular fan coming back over the barricade, representing a local promoter called Frostbelt Entertainment, wearing a blue jumpsuit, he looked like he was having the time of his life coming across the sea of fans. Throughout their setlist they played 11 songs in total, spanning across multiple albums going back to the album they released in 2018 called I Let The Devil In. Of course, playing new music such as “Living In Tradgedy”, “Monsters” & “Kill The Ache”. These guys know how to entertain a crowd, the bassist Christian Pulgarin was jumping around, kicking his legs out like he was also in the pit, all while he was playing his bass. Currents is a band I will have to catch again in the future. 

The last time I had the opportunity to cover The Plot In You was in 2018 when they were on the Cold Like War tour with We Came As Romans, Currents, Tempting Fate & Oceans Ate Alaska. The Plot In You is an American rock band formed in Hancock County, Ohio in 2010. The group is comprised of Landon Tewers, guitarist Josh Childress, bassist Ethan Yoder, and drummer Michael Cooper. Since the start of their career, the band has released 4 EP’s & 5 studio albums. One of my favorite albums is Happiness In Self Destruction, released in 2015. More recently the band has released a few singles such as “Been Here Before”, “Left Behind” & “Don’t Look Away”  in conjunction with their latest EPs VOL 1, 2 & 3. As the night slowly comes to an end, it is time for The Plot In You to hit the stage, I was filled with excitement, you could feel the energy in the room surge before they came onto the stage and played “Take Me Home, Country Roads”. The whole venue started singing along with the song. Then the boys in The Plot In You finally waltzed onto the stage. I enjoyed their lighting setup, behind the drummer, they had red swirls throughout the set. Based on the music the lighting perfectly went with the music they performed. They played 16 songs throughout the night which included a bunch from their new albums Vol 1, 2 & 3, such as “Left Behind”, “Closure” and “Pretend.” They ended with 2 encore songs at the end of the night, “Disposable Fix” and “Feel Nothing”.

Silo District

Buffalo, New York- The City of Buffalo, also known as “The Queen City of the Great Lakes”, has the largest collection of grain elevators in the world. Located on the shore of Lake Erie, Buffalo was once number one in the United States for grain storage. Today, local preservationists work to preserve and renew the structures. The world’s first brewery inside a silo is located at the RiverWorks an…

[aardrian]

Music Is Art 2023 also happened yesterday in Buffalo at RiverWorks — old grain silos converted to rock walls, zip lines, ropes courses, music venues, and more. Spanned Buffalo River to River Fest Park via the Michigan Street lift bridge.

At least 10 stages and 10 DJ stands cycling musicians throughout the day, most paired with artists’ installations or artists doing live performances.

I was a fan of the installations within the silos.

Nothing More The Carnal Tour 2024

The year 2024 is most definitely proving to be a year for some hard-hitting shows! The Carnal Tour with headliners Nothing More and their friends: Set it Off, From Ashes to New and Post Profit was no exception. Buffalo Riverworks hosted this stop on the tour, quickly becoming one of the more popular venues for bigger bands to stop by in the 716 area. Even with a Buffalo Bills Monday Night Football game happening the same night, the venue still was packed with long-time Nothing More fans. The merch line heavily extended from one end of the venue to the other with the floor packed with people waiting to see some pretty admired opening acts. Fans happily sang along to the venue’s playlist, anxiously awaiting for the first act to come on. Excitement grew as soundcheck began onstage and the first band got ready to kick off this insane night.

Post Profit was the first to hit the stage and make an impact they did. Unfortunately, traffic prevented me from getting to the venue in time for the first three songs but the band’s energy and hard-hitting lyrical hooks could be enjoyed and appreciated no matter where you stood in the venue.  Originating from Texas, the band catapulted some crazy energy. With a perfect blend of alternative and hardcore rock, the crowd instantly vibed with Matt Jackson’s intense vocals and made for the perfect opener to start the night off.

From Ashes to New hit the stage next. It’s no surprise that this band is popular with the crowd. With a unique blend of metal and rap, the band brings a refreshing unique sound that is raw and real to music fans of all ages. Their stage setup included two large TV screens on either side of the stage along with high platforms and smoke machines. From Ashes to New always puts on an entertaining show, especially with member Lance Dowdle always sporting a sick signature mask. With a sound similar to bands like Linkin Park and I Prevail, the band’s huge following is no surprise. The infectious vocals of Danny Case meshed with the smooth rapping of Matt Brandyberry compliments the band’s overall sound to such a degree it’s hard not to find yourself being consumed by their sound. I’ve been a fan of From Ashes to New for a while now and their set never disappoints. Tracks off the bands album Blackout dominated throughout the night. “Barely Breathing, “Nightmare” and “Monster in Me” were among a few songs that fans were feral for.

Set It Off took the stage next. With a mixture of pop-punk orchestral lines, catchy choruses and one or two rap verses thrown in, these guys came to dominant. Their faster-paced sound flawlessly switched between genres. Joyful melodies, and a range of layered vocals made for a creatively unique addition to the tours lineup. The hard-hitting energy was popular with the crowd, blending one song into the next. “Parasite” instantly had fans singing along with lead singer Cody Carson, who energetically ran from one side of the stage to the next. The bands voltaic energy had the walls of Riverworks shaking and fans vibrating with excitement. This was my first time hearing Set It Off live and they did not disappoint. Crowd surfers seemed to emerge out of nowhere as fan after fan made their way to front stage. “Fake Ass Friends”, “Hypnotized” and a cover of Linkin Park’s “Points of Authority” were among some of the songs played throughout the set. The band really amped up the crowd as they ended their set, leaving fans wanting more.

As the lights dimmed, fans grew restless for the talented presence of Nothing More. The band exploded into their first song “House of Sand” off their latest album Carnal. With lead singer Jonny Hawkins barefoot, shirtless, and ready to rip the place apart, this was already proving to be a killer show. Nothing More’s sound has easily been a popular outlet for fans over the years. With lyrics influenced from personal life experiences and both film and visual media influences, their highly relatable songs have quite the following. The mix of pop-punk/emo and rock/metal are similar to those of System of a Down mixed in with some Incubus flavor. The Post-screamo balance between pop hooks and kinetic thrills make for a huge part of their song composure and create a truly beautiful blending of catchy lyrics. Throughout the night the crowd was absolutely drawn to Hawkins high energy and raw vocals. A favorite of mine “If It Doesn’t Hurt” was hard to hear as the crowd passionately sang along. During “Ships in the Night” Hawkins brought out drums for a extended drum solo version. The slight change in energy had the crowd glued to the stage and created an almost hypnotic reaction from fans. There was not a moment during their set that fans weren’t either crowd surfing or feeding off the bands intense energy. Seeing Nothing More a couple times before I had expected nothing less than a truly detonating performance.

Nothing More is most definitely a band that you find yourself staying in until the very last song. As the show ended and the buzz of the set died down, fans hit up the merch tables one last time grabbing whatever was left. Fans with souvenirs of the show’s setlist and caught guitar picks could be seen filtering out into the now-crowded parking lot. If you missed the opportunity to see Nothing More on this tour don’t worry! Even though the Carnal Tour has ended, Nothing More hits the stage for some big festivals and some show dates with Godsmack. You can grab tickets for those shows right here!
