In reality Underland, Crackjaw and shudder could put on a fist class show, but add Taproot to the mix and you have a recipe for one ad incredible show.

Underland’s originals are dark aggressive and complex yet the band isn’t above having fun with a cover tune on occasion.

the pace for the band with his savant like beats and fills. Underland always wows the crowd in addition you can always count on them pack the house. Crackjaw in an incredibly powerful band. Since being featured on the cover of Detroit Live Magazine in late 2011 the band has been working the Detroit and National music scene diligently. Since 2004 they have performed over 1200 shows. Their performance this night was flawless. Ian, Rian, Justin, Dean & David captivated the crowd and definitely won over some fans. Shudders performance enlightened many Crimson concertgoers to the power this band possess. This 5 piece metal machine
