Trap Them Vocalist Breaks Both Feet Onstage And Keeps Playing
Ryan McKenney, frontman of the Massachusetts grindcore band Trap Them, is a motherfucking trooper. On Saturday night, while performing in the Dutch city of Eindhoven, McKenney leapt from a speaker cabinet and broke both of his feet, as Metal Injection reports. And rather than stopping the show, McKenney finished performing, hunching over a speaker cabinet and grimacing in obvious pain but still growling. And the band hasn’t canceled its touring plans, either. Two nights later, the band played a show in London, and McKenney, with a black eye and casts on both feet, did the whole show from an office chair. Not even a wheelchair! Below, you can see video of Trap Them performing after the injury, and of McKenney about to jump from those speakers and performing in London two nights later.
Trap Them’s new album Crown Feral is out now on Prosthetic Records, and you can stream it here.
