CHIMAIRA jammed their first live show since October of 2024 last night, May 16th, at this year’s ‘Milwaukee Metalfest‘ in Milwaukee, WI. This first date in a handful of shows the band have booked for the year saw them reintroduce some songs back to the set list.
Among the tracks being pulled out of storage per se were “Divination” from their debut EP “This Present Darkness“, marking its first live performance since 2000. “Lumps” from their debut album “Pass Out Of Existence” also made its way back to the stage for the first time since 2005. The set list for last night’s show ran as follows:
“Pure Hatred”
“Divination”
“The Flame”
“Sp Lit”
“Destroy And Dominate”
“Year Of The Snake”
“Lumps”
“Salvation”
“Power Trip”
“Resurrection”
