scion

At least 20 Lexington metal fans were in attendance at February's SCION festival in Atlanta. The festival featured a collection of 25 top-tier metal bands from around the world...like...Neurosis, Pig Destroyer, Boris, Wolves in the Throne Room to name a few.

Jonathan Hampton and Matt Gibson of Lexington utilized a press pass to take some bad-ass photos. Here's a sampling of some of my faves; hopefully the rest will be available to peruse somewhere online soon. I'll be sure to throw up a link once that goes down.

Boris

1349 – "TRVE" Norwegian Black Metal

Coalesce






Mastodon





Converge (metalcore from Salem, Mass.)




Pig Destroyer







I'm pretty sure these are the dudes from Metallica
