On what would have been an otherwise quiet Monday evening, blessthefall lit The Opera House on fire on the Toronto stop of their Gallows tour. From the first second they step on stage, one thing is clear, blessthefall does not mess around. With the crowd already buzzing from the opening line up comprised of Miss May I, Dark Divine, and Colorblind, blessthefall easily doubled the energy in the building as they ripped right into their setlist.

Made up of lead singer Beau Bokan, guitarist and vocalist Eric Lambert, bassist and vocalist Jared Warth, and guitarist Elliott Gruenberg, blessthefall dominated the stage with ease. Running, dancing, and jumping back and forth, the energy in the building is electric as the crowd pushes forward, eager to succumb to the intensity of the band.

Fresh off the release of GALLOWS, their first full length album in 7 years, at the beginning of September, the album has clearly become a quick fan favourite. Tracks like “Drag Me Under” and “Fell So Hard, Felt So Right” are met with a chorus of cheers before the audience screams the lyrics back at the band. Both Bokan and Warth take turns jumping off stage onto the barricade and into the audience, happily diving into the heart of the chaos as the crowd excitedly welcomes them in.

The band, and the audience, don’t slow down for a second, keeping the energy in the building pulsing through the roof as the walls vibrate to the beat of moshers running in and out of the pit. With a steady flow of crowd surfers, the whole audience is moving throughout the set, fully pulled into the excitement of the show.

I can promise one thing, blessthefall is not a show you want to miss. Catch them now on the Gallows tour, continuing into the middle of October in North America. Stream GALLOWS, out now on all streaming platforms.
