Izthmi pictures from July 28th in Arlington, Washington State

Here are some pictures from Izthmi's performance in Arlington last night at the Mirkwood Public House. Izthmi is atmospheric melodic extreme music. On Bandcamp they have one song and it points to the epic direction that they go for with their sound. Given the lack of knowledge regarding the band's music, it's not possible to write in any competent manner about it yet, but what is possible to say is that music should be engaging for fans that support DIY bands working up their way towards accomplishing something worthwhile in the sounds of ambitious extreme metal, as already mentioned. The first track or song that they performed sounded like one long suite, although this is speaking strictly from a perspective of no knowledge of the song titles, lyrics and other details. At any rate, it sounded very interesting and there were some very nice passages of blasting speed and also melody. This publication would certainly like to find out more about the band and their plans for the future. We'll have to see if we can get more information coming your way, dear reader, at some point here in the future.

Apologies to the reader and to the band for the bad quality of the pictures. This is simply the way the pictures came out and many more were deleted due to their bad quality. The pictures might have been clearer perhaps if the lights on the stage had been turned on, but for some reason they were not, which was a shame. Of course, it doesn't help that the person taking the pictures is not a professional photographer, either. Accept these pictures as evidence of the band in Arlington, Washington State, and not as examples of great photography.

Thank you to the members of Izthmi for making the trip to these northern forests where the trees are tall and the streets are narrow. It was great to see them bring their heavy metal to the people of the north. Let's hope that this is not the last time that the fans in Everett, Marysville, Granite Falls, Lake Steves, Granite Falls and the general area have an opportunity to catch the band in action.
