High On Fire in Bilbao

High On Fire are an American metal trio formed in Oakland in 1998 by guitarist and vocalist Matt Pike after Sleep disbanded. Their heavy, riff-driven sound draws on stoner, sludge and doom metal, and their best-known records include Blessed Black Wings, Death Is This Communion and Snakes for the Divine. The title track from Electric Messiah won the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. The 2005 concert album Live from the Relapse Contamination Festival documents a High On Fire set recorded at the Trocadero Theatre in Philadelphia. The recording captures the power-trio format that has remained central to their club, theatre and festival performances. High On Fire have carried that format well beyond Oakland, performing at Roadburn in Tilburg and Hellfest in Clisson.
