    AMATEUR CONCERT PHOTOGRAPHY HOUR: Napalm Death/Melvins/Melt Banana @ Opera House, April 19, 2016

    This was a co-headlining gig, with Napalm going on last and both them and the Melvins playing for about an hour. But from my vantage point, I gotta say, the Melvins had a much more punishing pit!
