The direct support of the night was Libricide, who combines many of the beloved 90s sounds together for an addictively groovy rock n roll sound. The band consists of Harun Gadol on lead vocals and guitar, Dylan Stark on guitar and backing vocals, Will Harris on bass, and Dan LaConti on drums. The catchy guitar melodies are reminiscent of the alternative staple acts of the 90s, à la Stone Temple Pilots. While melodies draw similarities to the alternative sounds, lead singer Harun Gadol’s vocals add a hint of of the post grunge era, similar to that of Third Eye Blind. Their undeniable catchy rock songs and distinctive sound drew a large crowd to the show, all of who were front and center for their set.

Libricide, the New York City-grown Rock/Fusion band began its set with the thunderous single, “Destiny Weights,” complete with mid-song lead guitar trade-offs, as band members seemed to be playing their own solos in unison. The audience stood locked in on progressive, shredding guitars, hard-hitting drums and thumping bass. The music suggests influences from early- to mid-era Incubus, Foo Fighters and a hint of Karnivool. The band’s first full-length album is set for a 2015 release.
