Wed Oct 16 Kristeen Young
Album Release Residency
Night 2
Kristeen Young: Album Release Residency: Night 2! Punk, Rock! If Tori Amos had been raised as a feral child, she might have sounded a bit like Kristeen Young. Like Amos, Young has a broad vocal range and embraces the piano as her musical instrument, but there's a wildly aggressive emotional energy in her work, as well as an intelligently transgressive mindset that marks her as a true original. She has released seven studio albums and has collaborated with Brian Molko of Placebo, Morrissey, David Bowie and Dave Grohl, producer Tony Visconti and the Damned.

Thu Oct 17 Sequence
Figure & Carbin
Sequence: Figure & Carbin! Dubstep! Terror, gore, darkness: tis the season. And who better to get your October warmed up for Halloween than Figure (AKA Josh Gard). Of all the names in bass music, Figure is one of the heaviest. Horror themes run throughout his album art (we're talking zombies, insane asylums, pumpkin head etc), with the DJ/producer releasing a volume of fresh EDM titled "Horror" almost every year. Figure's next EP will be Volume 10 - how about that for commitment?

Sat Oct 26 Eyehategod
Eyehategod! Punk, Hardcore, Doom, Sludge! New Orleans has produced some mighty fine music in all genres, so it should be no surprise that the elder statesmen of sludge metal hail from the big easy. After all, sludge and swampland go hand in hand. Maintaining an aggressive, ear assaulting repertoire for more than three decades (even after the death of founding member Joey LaCaze) is not only laudable, it is a service to metalheads of all ages.

Sun Oct 27 Witchripper
Witchripper! Metal! One of Seattle's best-kept secrets, Witchripper possess hot tones, smoky clean singing and impassioned barks, and shifting time signatures. Witch Ripper have an accessible sound equally adept at delivering hooks and crushing riffs. The band evoke favorable comparisons to Mastodon's powerful early work. And while it seems a little disingenuous to compare a young band to one of the most popular American metal bands of the last fifteen years, Witch Ripper invite the association, and unlike most bands that do, every piece of the performance is tastefully executed.

Tue Oct 29 Neighborhood Brats
Neighborhood Brats! Punk! Neighborhood Brats were formed in 2010 by Jenny Angelillo and George Rager, aiming to be the "ultimate SF party band". Initial efforts, as Angelillo describes, were about "getting roofied at the Beauty Bar, a guy stabbing people on BART, crazy people in Golden Gate Park, sharks, zombie sharks, sharks eating pizza, and buying coke in Post-It notes". Live shows are an experience. Petite, fit and articulate, Angelillo looks like a Montessori mom's adorable babysitter, save for her tattoos.

Fri Nov 1 Turbo Drive
Glitch Black
Turbo Drive: Glitch Black! Synthwave! From inter-dimensional hyperspace comes an apparition who tore itself from the frayed fabric of the universe. Clearly this being doesn't belong in this world. He is Glitch Black. And he makes music to keep this dimension from falling apart. Producer of dark synthwave music and cyberpunk inspired motion graphics. By manner of atmospheric synths and a pounding guitar, you have entered the haunting embrace that is Gregorio Franco.
