Power Trip Live at Elsewhere

When Revolver favorites Power Trip descended on Brooklyn, New York's Elsewhere on November 21st, our film crew was there to capture all the action. The Texas-based thrashers tore through a kinetic, near-hour-long set featuring such modern mosh-pit classics as "Executioner's Tax (Swing of the Axe), "If Not Us Then Who" and "Firing Squad." Watch the full performance now.

Rest easy, Riley. You and the boys made some amazing music that affected my life in a majorly positive way. Thank you!

I'm crying man, I saw them at my first concert!

No way.... Rest in Power Riley. God damn your aggression is definitely going to be missed but never forgotten

[@ryananderson586]

I only got into Power Trip earlier this year. They became one of my favorite morning jams. Since his passing I dove deep into whatever I could find and listened to every song they ever put out. I have listened to Power Trip every single fucking day for the last 2 months. Nightmare Logic is literally a perfect fucking album and I hope the rest of this band continues to make music. Rest in Power....

Riley’s of course gone much too young but I’m so grateful we have high quality videos of full shows of this band in their prime, may this legacy live on for generations

[@jackieparmz]

Riley was hardcore’s North Star. Almost impossibly pure and committed. Rest In Power, brother. We will never stop missing you.

Imagine being this good. And leaving a legacy as a band that hadn’t even reached its peak. Rest In Power, Riley. Long live Power Trip.

I'm 52 and I have not heard such a tight live band since Slayer in 86. Thank you youngsters. I would have mentioned Metallica but Lars never had this drummers chops.

If you just mean from a thrash band, I’d say yes, 100 percent the tightest thrash band since Slayer. If Metal in general, you can’t forget Pantera. They were absolute monsters live.

I'm 53 and I just discovered this band last night watching Code Orange on You tube (who are good also) and this popped up. Holy S@#t these guys are awesome! Executioners Tax is my new favorite song Reminds me of great old school thrashing good times in the late 80's.
