Dune Rats ~ Chastity ~ Uncle Dan
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PMDune RatsFour albums in, Dune Rats are still finding new ways to connect with the creative chaos that is at the core of their music. The band, beloved for their carefree and no-holds-barred approach to rock music, have demonstrated time and time again that a formula for memorable music and longevity doesn’t need to be overcomplicated. The secret to Dunies’ success lay in the band’s unshakeable dynamic and their unabashed love for music that just makes you feel good. With Real Rare Whale, Dune Rats take this simple formula and kick it up an extra few notches – the final output representing a new phase for the group; perhaps their most ambitious and cohesive collection of work to date.ChastityBrandon Williams makes resonant songs that capture isolation and resilience. As the songwriter behind Chastity, the Whitby, Ontario musician has made three unrelentingly perceptive albums culminating in the cathartic Suffer Summer, which is out January 13, 2022 via Deathwish and Dine Alone Records. The LP caps off an album trilogy that showcases both Williams’ emotional range as a lyricist but also his boundless love of outsider music. His 2018 debut Death Lust pulled from Unwound and The Smashing Pumpkins as he grappled with mortality while 2019’s Home Made Satan dealt in world-weary anxiety and Hum-like atmospherics. But Suffer Summer is a meditation on happiness, channeled through powerhouse riffs and undeniably potent choruses, sung with Mineral and Jimmy Eat World worn on his sleeve. It’s an album that shows how healing and staying content is hard but necessary work.Uncle DanUncle Dan is:Shawn Wiseley – VocalsMitch Millard – Bass / TrumpetChalie Robinson – DrumsEric Mohrmann – GuitarJohn Guastavino – Guitarhttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7GqFrg0LwB8amgVpUMp5q8?si=qlkHKFEvSA-8daH7fPbkug&nd=1

Hive ~ Prisoner ~ Oldest Sea
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM HiveFormed in 2014 by guitarist and vocalist Morgan Carpenter and drummer Mike Paradise, Hive draws heavily from Scandinavian D-beat, Pacific Northwestern hardcore punk, and the legendary Minneapolis crust scene of their hometown. Drawing from their collective years in veteran hardcore bands such as Threadbare, Bosnia, Disembodied, and many more dating back to the early 1990’s, Hive has already left a dark cloud over the United States hardcore scene, particularly in the Midwest. In 2015, the band self-recorded and released their first 6 song self titled EP on limited edition cassette and 12” vinyl. The first proper full length LP, Parasitic Twin, was released by Crown And Throne Ltd. in 2017. 2018 saw Hive collaborating on a split 7” with fellow Minneapolis hardcore band No Skin. Most recently, in January of 2019, Hive distilled the same angst and paranoia of their previous efforts while confiscating the claustrophobia and lawlessness of their live shows. The result is Most Vicious Animal, 12 songs of bulldozing hardcore that rarely gives listeners a chance to breathe. Recorded entirely in two days while tracking in the same room together, the band was able to achieve a more brash and aggressive album compared to their previous releases. The bold new album will be released on all formats by known accomplices Crown And Throne Ltd. (vinyl, limited edition cassette, digital) and Seeing Red Records (CD, digital) in August 2019. On the heels of the release of Most Vicious Animal, the band performed numerous live shows from Denver to Philadelphia – including two separate tours with Sect (Southern Lord Records) – the last of which concluded in Baltimore, just days before COVID-19 shut down live music for nearly two years. During the COVID-19 shutdown, Hive remained diligent in practice and writing. A live performance was recorded for Cvlt Nation’s Sonic Unrest Volume 4 – a collection of virtual live sets throughout the pandemic. Shortly after, the band self released the audio from the performance as the Live Viral Armageddon cassette. By mid 2021, the band had completed writing for their third full length album, and began recording in unorthodox ways through the remainder of the year. The birthed result was Spiritual Poverty – a nine song powerhouse grabbing the band’s signature combination of raw punk and unbridled heaviness by the throat, and illogically pushing it all into the red. Hive has carved out their own denomination through underground punk and is welcomed and shunned by their peers in equal measure. Their cabal is undoing and the only haven is death. Join their cult.Hive Bandcamp: hivempls.bandcamp.comPrisonerhttps://prisoner.bandcamp.com/Oldest SeaFormed in 2017 by songwriter Sam Marandola, Oldest Sea began as one woman’s personal exploration of the darker side of experimental folk music.

Aquatic Ape Theory ~ Lower Aetna ~ Mr Multch
**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PMAquatic Ape TheoryBorn in the depths of Temple University basements, Aquatic Ape Theory is a Philadelphia-based rock band with a powerful attitude. Since their formation in 2013, the Apes have played alongside acts including Thumpasaurus, Snacktime, Haley Jane and the Primates, members of Lotus and more. The 5-piece group blends roots of classic rock, hair metal, funk and prog with heavy improvisation in a sound that can best be described as a “slam band.” Layered with soulful vocals over heavy and funky rhythms, three guitars expertly balance melodic harmonies with stylistic solos. Whether it’s an esoteric groove, poignant melodies, or an absolute shred fest, Aquatic Ape Theory’s focused and electrifying energy delivers an unprecedented experience to listeners.Lower AetnaDrawing on the classic rock of the ’70s, the synth-driven dreamscapes of the ’80s, and the wall-of-sound stadium rock of the 2000s, The Lower Aetna makes music for tailgating the end of the empire. The project’s debut record, Waiting for God to Turn on the Lights, is a startlingly vivid investigation of families, aging, and radicalization in the internet age. Waiting for God to Turn on the Lights is now streaming on all major platforms.www.theloweraetna.comMr Multch
