Grayceon

San Francisco band Grayceon played with Deadsea Wednesday night at Elbo Room. They've newly signed with my favorite record label, Profound Lore.

NAILS

Excellent hardcore/metal band and recent signees to Southern Lord Records

Tigon

Tigon wins weirdest band of the night, but in the best way.

Man Among Wolves / Blighted

Blighted

Man Among Wolves



Blighted played second to last, but I didn't have many pictures of them or MAW so I'm combining them. Blighted drove all the way from Ventura, CA to play.

Deafheaven

Intriguing shoegazey black metal from SF

Scream With Me Art Exhibition

It's yours for $1,000. It's worth it if you have the money.








Tonight I went to the 'Scream With Me' art show at the 111 Minna Gallery. I went mainly to see prints by Converge frontman Jacob Bannon, but I was also curious to see what other works were on display. The Bannon prints definitely had the most heft and were highlighted more than the other pieces, but there were some cool dead pigeon paintings and some interesting black metal pop art. It's a good chance for Converge fans to see original prints of their album art in person. Or a good chance to rub shoulders with some hip arty people, I dunno.
