YYYYEEEEEESSSSSSSSS………this is why we are fucking here; this is the evolution in so many goddamn ways of what we call heavy music — each of the bands on this bill is pushing the boundaries in some way or another, and it’s all future-forward…how accessible it is, for anyone, let alone fans of aggressive music, remains to be seen, but in any case — no matter how into any of these bands you are, it is important to know that this grouping will go down as MOTHERFUCKING LEGENDARY. And therefore, whether you like it or not, it is worth your while to be a part of this marker in the historical record.

Think about it…

BARONESS “Rays On Pinion” / “Vision”

THE RED CHORD“Dragon Wagon” / “That Certain Special Ugly”

CONVERGE“Letterbomb” / “Last Light” / “Versus”

There is no debate; if you are in New York City and you are a fan of heavy music, I will see you there.
