Thursday March 11th Heaven Doors@7:00PM $15.00 ADV OTEP, Bury Your Dead, Through the Eyes of the Dead, Destrophy, Legion X, Alternator "Our music is formed from the marrow of creative intercourse. Art for art's sake. Indeed. And just as Artaud taught: our music is a protest against the senseless constraints that reduce "culture" into an inconceivable Pantheon of humdrum, ineffectual lesser gods and puppets of sterility & puritanism. In antiquity, the Theatre was created as an outlet for all of life's repressions and to proclaim to one and all that life's intensity is still intact. Just as light is born from the burning flame, we must fight for the glow. But we warn you, this music, our message, and these lessons are not for every soul. Some will be devoured. Others reborn. Remember, do not slide into bed with the Devil unless you intend to ***k." - Otep Shamaya

Thursday March 11th Hell Doors@7:00PM $12.00 ADV Envy on the Coast & Fall of Troy w/ Special Guests Twin Atlantic Dawn Is Broken Three years ago, two discouraged friends sat down and imagined what it would be like to play in band without gimmicks, without egos, and without facades. They wondered what itd be like to play with people who shared in their desire to meet every kid, at every show, in every state they played. Without even making a conscious attempt to pursue this concept, they were fortunate enough to find three other friends who shared this desire. Over the course of 3 years, Envy on the Coast was born. The Fall of Troy is everything you wish your band could be - younger, faster, louder, and well... better looking. These are the facts, but don't let it get you down. You're a snowflake, unique in your own way. The heavy songs are bone-crushing, the melodic passages are instantly memorable and, most importantly, the avant-garde experimentation doesn't overshadow the music's inherent accessibility.

Friday March 12th Hell Doors@7:00PM $10.00 ADV The Chariot, Greeley Estates, Inhale/Exhale, Memphis May Fire, The Color Morale Based in Atlanta and coming with Norma Jean's former frontman, the buzz about The Chariot can't be denied. The Chariot is distinctively different lyrically and musically in comparison to Scogin's previous band. Everything is alive, everything is breathing, nothing is dead and nothing is bleeding is without a doubt a top-notch debut album, lengthy song titles and all. It's so hardcore, to the point that even I was taken aback by its intensity. It is indeed what they intended it to be, authentic. It'll be joy to your hearts.

Sunday March 14th Hell Doors@6:00PM $15.00 ADV Red Jumpsuit Apparatus Fit For Rivals Have You Seen My Ghost That New Retro What's in a name? Well, it depends who came up with it. In the case of Middleburg, Florida quintet The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus, it might mean anything. Jumpsuits can be sleek and fashionable, tight and revealing. Or they can be loose and homogeneous, suggesting redundancy and confinement befitting a jailbird. Red is often flashy and easily noticeable, but it's also the color of blood. And an apparatus allows a jumpsuit to be used for a specific purpose, such as leaping from an airplane - or it could be something sexual. After all, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus are ballsy and emotional, pulsing with vibrancy and tenacity. They're strong, yet vulnerable, and they shift between musical styles with the confidence of superstars.

Sunday March 14th Purgatory Doors@7:00PM $8 ADV Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson Shilpa Ray & Her Happy Hookers Suckers Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson, based on name alone, may sound like a president on first offing, but give his eponymous, debut album a spin and you'll soon realise a more relevant career has presented itself for this 25-year-old Brooklyn bard. This is modern music made the old-fashioned way: take ragged, soulful and completely compelling hymns for tough times, throw into the mix an impressive array of backing musicians, and just record what happens. His sophomore album is Summer of Fear, out October 20th on Saddle Creek Records. New York has been sadly lacking a proper troubadour looking at the stars while mired in the gutter--but in Miles, we have our man.

Tuesday March 16th Hell Doors@7:00PM $10 ADV Goatwhore Enfold Darkness Low Down Carosis Goatwhore ventures into darker, less conventional territory. Probing the pitch-black recesses of mind and soul in a disturbing, introspective examination of dark forces at work, and unleashing it all with a feral hookiness and atmospheric flare, the band steps beyond the bounds of mere black metal into a realm all its own.

Friday March 19th Heaven Doors@7pm $17.50 ADV Alkaline Trio, Cursive The Dear & Departed Follow me here: Punk rock is like Joan Rivers. In an ongoing quest for eternal youth, it continually tears at the flesh of its own face, pushing and prodding and tightening and twisting until what emerges is a boring old monster that, somehow, everyone is OK with looking at. And this far down the line, punk rock has been reshaped so many times it sometimes looks like a busload of 70-something sun-bunnies in coastal Florida, face lifted into an army of look-a-likes. Somewhere along the ride, its mean spirit left the tuneful bands for hardcore and metal, and punk rock filled with melody became nice. And funny. And safe. And dull as shit. Let's do this.
