New Pictures Reveal Eagles Of Death Metal Fans Enjoying Concert... Just Minutes Before ISIS Gunmen Opened Fire

These poignant photographs show jubilant fans at the Eagles Of Death Metal gig moments before they were massacred by ISIS gunmen in Paris.

The pictures are clear enough to pick out individual faces in the crowd, some of whom were among the 89 victims slaughtered at the Bataclan Concert Hall on Friday night.

Some fans can been seen making the horn hand gesture that is popular within the heavy metal culture. Others are smiling for camera, raising their glasses or simply enjoying the music.

 

 

Minutes later, at 9.40pm (8.40pm GMT), three gunmen burst into the venue as the Californian rock band were launching into one of their favourites called Kiss The Devil.

Despite the men brandishing semi-automatic weapons and bristling with magazines of ammunition, some thought they were part of the spectacle.

But it quickly became a scene of horror as the militants mercilessly gunned down their victims one by one, even targeting people in wheelchairs.
