Cattle Decapitation/Fetal Butchery/Sinned @ Metro Hall April 3rd
Though I missed opener Sinned, Fetal Butchery from Surrey, not to be confused with the U.S band of the same name, put on an energetic and honest show. They are a band just...

I’m glad I took the night off work this last Wednesday for a little Bel Riose eardrum shakeup at the Railway. In the process I discov...

White Lung/Crystal Antlers/Fucked Up @ Richard’s on Richards September 7th 2008
The sparse crowd was bewitched by the androgynous shrieking of White Lung’s Mish. As our ears would testify, there may have been no sound check and we we...
