Scene Queen in London Pt. 2 🩷🩷

Guys!
Last night was fucking awesome omggg.
So just for context, I was going in not really knowing any of these bands apart from Scene Queen but even then she’s not my favourite band just a band I listen to casually. But that ended up being one of the best gigs I’ve been to in my life. Not even necessarily the music but the experience as a whole was so fun. More fun than I even expected it to be.
First on stage was a band called Lake Malice. I had not even really heard of them before this gig, I mean I’ve heard their name kind of thrown about in the metal scene but here and there. So I go and they’re like this metalcore band but they sound like how metalcore sounded back in the 2010s with a wicked female screamer - she’s good. Good doesn’t even cover it. Absolutely brutal opener.
I loved it to be honest they turned out being a great band; they put on a hell of a show. At this point, I could already see mosh pit starting which is unusual with bands the are playing the 02 - or to be fair maybe its just the types of bands I see that is why I’ve never seen it but from that I could already tell that this gig was gonna be lively.
After that was an act called girly (I don’t know if I spelled that right but that’s how it’s pronounced.) and she was…. Okay. But it was a completely different vibe from the last band, I feel and I get why she was there because Scene Queen is all about being girly and being fun and mixing it with metal, but I feel like they should have gone on before Lake Malice instead of after because the crowd was really hyped during Lake Malice and then it feels like the energy kind of dipped because girly’s act was more casual.
This dip in energy didn’t last for long however, because as soon as Scene Queen took the stage, she owned it. She started strong with one of her most popular songs, and that pit went WILLLDD.
It was so unusual because I didn’t expect anybody to pit to this band. I really didn’t. But I was here for it.
The act overall was really weird, but… I enjoyed it. One minute we were in the pit, the next minute we were holding up lighters (ie. the flashlight on the back of our phones) and the next we were twerking. It was so bizarre it was the most exercise I have ever done at a show. I found myself in the mosh pit five separate times. The pit for Pink Rover went so fucking hard especially since this is the first time I have been in the pit in a long time; actually the first time I have actually been in a pit outside of a local show because usually when I go in the mosh pit, it’s usually just at local metal shows in my hometown. I’ve never done it at a big venue before, but this was waaayy better.
I think I might actually go in moshpits more often because it seems like a good mental outlet for me and it just seems like my sort of thing.
Everyone left looking a hot mess lol. I was quite literally drenched in sweat as I said, this was the most effort physically I have ever put into a gig in my life. I knew it would be fun but holy shit.
So yeah, that’s my update on Scene Queen, overall, great show and Lake Malice now has a new fan 🤘🏽
