Spear of Destiny

Spear of Destiny is a band that became a part of the post punk scene with their edgy image. They were formed in the 80s by the lead singer, Kirk Brandon, who is the man responsible for penning their best-known single “Never Take Me Alive” which is a worthy opener of tonight’s show, inducing such a fantastic reaction from these punters here tonight. The angst is still there twenty five years on, but one of the things that has made this band transcend which is very well highlighted in this set tonight is the way that they manage to make the melodies on the guitars such a main component of their sound. Brandon discusses their career throughout the night and what they’re doing these days, talking about the making of a lot of their albums and the sort of trials and tribulations that they had to go through as a band to make everything work. They perform about 50% of the songs from their latest album “Omega Point” too which of course everyone in this vicinity owns, at least twice.
