Falling In Reverse ignited West Palm Beach with their God Is a Weapon Tour at the iTHINK Financial Amphitheatre on a hot August day.
The iThink Financial Amphitheatre in West Palm Beach erupted with energy as Falling In Reverse brought their explosive God Is a Weapon Tour to Florida. The venue was packed with thousands of fans who had been eagerly awaiting the band’s arrival, and from the very first note, it was clear that Ronnie Radke and company had come to deliver a performance that was equal parts spectacle, chaos, and emotional release.
The set opened with “ZOMBIFIED,” instantly sending the amphitheater into overdrive. Smoke plumes and dazzling visuals lit up the massive LED screens behind the band as Radke stormed the stage with his trademark blend of intensity and swagger. His vocals cut sharply through the humid air, commanding the audience’s attention as the crowd screamed every lyric back at him. The moment set the tone for a night that would blur the line between rock concert and theatrical production.
Throughout the performance, Falling In Reverse showcased their signature ability to blend genres with fearless precision. Songs like “Voices in My Head” and “Watch the World Burn” flowed seamlessly from rapid-fire hip-hop cadences into crushing metalcore breakdowns, while electronic flourishes added a cinematic touch. Radke’s versatility was on full display, shifting effortlessly from venomous rapping to soaring choruses and guttural screams. The diversity of sound reflected the band’s evolution, and the crowd responded with unrelenting enthusiasm.
Older tracks like “The Drug in Me Is You” and “I’m Not a Vampire” were met with thunderous applause from longtime fans, who sang every word with nostalgic fervor. These moments bridged the gap between the band’s earlier, more playful material and their darker, more experimental recent releases, offering a full spectrum of Falling In Reverse’s journey. The band’s musicianship, tight and unyielding, provided the perfect backdrop for Radke’s commanding presence at the center of it all.
The production was as much a star of the show as the music itself. Pyrotechnics erupted in sync with breakdowns, strobes pulsed in time with the rhythms, and the visuals projected across the stage added depth to each song’s atmosphere. During “Popular Monster,” perhaps the band’s most recognizable anthem, the amphitheater became a chorus of thousands of voices merging with Radke’s as he prowled the stage like a general rallying his troops. It was a defining moment of the evening—an eruption of unity between band and audience.
Despite the grandiosity, the night also carried moments of sincerity. Between songs, Radke addressed the crowd directly, expressing gratitude for the fans who had stood by the band through both triumphs and controversies. His honesty gave the night an added weight, revealing the vulnerability that fuels much of Falling In Reverse’s art. It was a reminder that beneath the chaos and bravado lies a raw human core.
As the show drew to a close with “Watch the World Burn,” the stage exploded in lights, smoke, and fury, leaving fans breathless. When the final note faded, the crowd roared in approval, knowing they had witnessed more than a concert—they had experienced a cathartic release, a spectacle of defiance, and a testament to the enduring power of Falling In Reverse.
For West Palm Beach, the God Is a Weapon Tour was not just a stop on the calendar. It was a night of spectacle and connection that fans will carry with them long after the lights dimmed.
