The Genitorturers

The Genitorturers are not for the faint of heart. Part concert, part theatrics, part freak show, the  Genitorturers will shock, awe, and leave you wanting more. On Sunday, April 29th, The Genitorturers bloodied the stage at Photocity in Rochester, NY. The room was filled with goth’s from all ages, howling with excitement as dollar bills were stapled to a tattooed man, and drank shots from a tube that ran through his nose.

Gen stomped onto the stage and hung to a human sized red cross. Singing industrial music mixed with hardcore punk. Changing masks, weapons, armour, and tools of rites; Gen sang as the theatrics continued. Adorning groupies with fake blood, and attacking them with her tentacles. While Athena Fatale brought XXX to the stage in her many costume changes. Her barely there costumes, skillful dance moves and theatrical performances tantalized men and females alike.   

formed in 1986 in Orlando, the band burst onto the Florida hardcore scene in the 1990´s alonside bands such as Marylin Manson and the Spooky Kids. Since then the band have taken their erotic fetish fuelled goth celebration of the unspeakable worldwide.
