Savages bring dark intensity to Neumos (Photos)

Savages @ Neumos

Savages front-woman Jenny Beth prowls the stage like a wild animal waiting to pounce on her pray. The London-based post-punk revival rock band invaded Seattle to deliver their intensely dark songs to an adoring crowd at Seattle’s Neumos last week (9/23).

The band is touring in support of their debut album, Silence Yourself, which reached number 19 in the UK Albums Chart in May 2013. This is savages first foray into the U.S. Market.

Photographer Alex Crick was on hand to capture the band in photos.
