When I see a "Battle of the Bands" I think it's just one band that is perhaps chosen as a Winner out of a slew of competitors. Little did I know the Bands at Small's Bar SUPER SPOOKY FRIDAY BEFORE HALLOWEEN BATTLE TO THE DEATH!! Event would literally be choreographed fights and such! I was awed and very happy- it was VERY ENTERTAINING!- the music was AWESOME!

Detroit's Punk scene continues to be a locally-centered scene around smaller bars such as Small's in Hamtramck. Since the late 1970's, Detroit's size and non-centered Night-life has necessitated this approach. Like the sirens of Bands like Negative Approach, the Bands at this performance- Cult of the SPACESKULL, Burn Maralaro, SNARLY and Steve Harvey Oswald continues the Punk-essence that can never die in the Motor City.
Besides solid music from all the Bands, the theme of a challenge between Headliner CULT OF THE SPACESKULL and BURN MARALAGO to see who is DETROIT'S TOP BLOOD CULT pervaded the night. SNARLY is an Ally of CULT OF THE SPACESKULL. During SNARLY'S set, Clown-themed MARALARO taunted them. Second-to-last MARALAGO was slowly replaced by CULT on stage in a chorograph "Coup". MARALARO 'S hilarious response of "wtf" was great.
Audience-area guests such as a GIANT CHICKEN DINOSAUR (SNARLY fought it); ROBOT that searched for the remnants of the MARALAGO BAND; SPACE SKULL (a Skeletal Demon similar to Slender Man); a GIANT SCOOBY-DOO (During MARALARO set); a HUGE GHOST blow-up Effigy (During CULT's set- it represented the Ghosts of MARALARO) and those 2 Clown Lackeys of MARALAGO were constantly supporting their Band!
The Album Release of CULT's first Studio album, "That's What You Get" is a Punk view of the world with the opening song, "Future"'s opening line- "I've been to the future and it fucking sucks..."- a solid album! One can say this was the ULTIMATE ALBUM RELEASE PARTY!

The final battle between The Leader of MARALAGO and THE RED WITCH (Leader of CULT) was epic! CULT won this "Battle" and is the "PRIEMIER BLOOD CULT OF DETROIT"
