Terror's Pain Into Power Tour A Must-See
Terror plays the Middle East in Cambridge, MA. May 13, 2022
TERROR is currently on tour in support of their new album, Pain Into Power, and we were able to see them play at the Middle East Club in Cambridge, MA on Friday, May 13th, supported by Kublai Khan, Sanguisugabogg, and Pain of Truth. The band opened with the title track off the new album and played a few more new ones throughout the set, but made sure to include fan favorites like "Stick Tight", "One With the Underdogs", and "Keep Your Mouth Shut". Terror never fails to stoke a crowd into a frenzy, with frontman Scott Vogel taking the audience to task - making eye contact with each person and including them in the performance. The result was 40 minutes of unwavering energy, movement, and pure fun, closed out by classic "Keepers of the Faith". If you're able, be sure to check out Terror on tour now through the end of the month and grab their new album!
