Distest! (All Cat Rose photos)

"You guys fucking rip!" came a holler from the crowd.

The raucous bandmembers from Distest paused for a second, grinned and then continued their onslaught on March 1 at Darrell's Tavern in Shoreline, WA.

Yeah, that's the way it went down to unleash this third month of 2025. It's been a tough year thus far, and we desperately need shredding tunes to get us through these dark days.

Distest brought along Tongues and The Kehft to help dole out some destruction at this fine establishment on Aurora Avenue North. It fucking worked and we're all better off for attending this fray.

"Where the fuck is Darrell? I wanna tell him how much I love his tavern," remarked the Tongues' singer as their set began.

Later, the vocalist faced the Tongues' guitarist, whose teeth chomped on the strings during the previous song, and noted with a chuckle: "Guitars are friends, not food."

Truer words have never been spoken.

Here are Cat Rose's photos from the wild night:
