In late May 2021, when Jersey mathcore pioneers Deadguy announced that they would be reuniting to play their first live shows since 1997, a certain segment of the heavy-music underground lost its collective shit. Six months later, on November 27th, the band — specifically, the lineup that played on their revered one-and-only full-length, 1995's Fixation on a Co-Worker — took the comeback run to Brooklyn metal stronghold Saint Vitus Bar. Revolver's own Rob Menzer was there in the pit to take photos — and guitars to the head. Check out some of his standout shots below.
