Greetings, friends. Today I bring you another installment of Buenos Aires Extremo, in which I'm going to share with you some photos from the concert by the heavy metal band Animal.

It's kind of funny. I've known this band for many years. Ever since I got into this type of music, I think I was about 14 years old, I knew about Animal, I knew they were an Argentine heavy metal band, but I had never really listened to them closely.

However, more than 15 years later, I had the opportunity to see them completely spontaneously. I went to the Buenos Aires Extremo Festival and they turned out to be the main band, the one that closed the event.

Nowadays, I don't know if I would define it as pure heavy metal, since it has several variations. I think there's a bit of hardcore, very fast parts, and, at times, vocals with a certain rap influence, more as an influence than as a defined style. I had the opportunity to do the photographic coverage of this show and I really enjoyed it. The organization was very good, the sound was brutal, and I was able to get as close as possible with a 70–300 mm lens to take these shots.

The lighting was very well done and, in fact, this is the first time I've spent a little more time on this type of concert photography.

On the other hand, I want to emphasize that the Argentine audience, as is known worldwide, is impressive. Lots of euphoria, lots of energy, and great support for national talent, especially for this band, which is historic for the country and for many people.

In contrast to the country I come from, there is a significant difference in terms of support and, let's say, the feeling of nationalism related to backing local and national bands.

It really was a party. The audience was completely connected with the band, and the band, in turn, with the audience.

When it came to coverage, I had very easy access to different corners of the stage area, which made for a very enjoyable and fun afternoon, during which I was able to capture these moments during Animal's performance.

I hope you liked these photos and I wish you a wonderful day.
