Ripping bands and skaters invade Possessed in Seattle at Black Market Skates on April 26, 2026/ Cat Rose photos


Distest blows us away.



Dude shreds away.



Kickin' out the jams.

On a stunning day, which even featured an eagle flying overhead, copious shredding bands and skaters gave the stage and ramps a serious workout as the Larb and Black Market Skates presented Possessed in Seattle on April 26.

Black Market's Aurora Avenue digs was clearly the place to be that Sunday as people turned out in droves to check out the stoked skaters who cranked up their talent while the bands Distest, The Heeps, Regiment of Speed, Ascended Dead, P.I.L.A.U., Disease and Inmortui blasted away all afternoon and into the evening. Metal horns aplenty were raised and beer cans flew in the air. Hamburgers were devoured and slammers kicked up dirt in the pit. Dogs dug the gritty scene. Now that's top-notch shit.

It was a rough-and-tumble, rip-and-tear affair and Cat Rose placed her camera lens on nearly all the greatness to see that day.
