ESCAPE FROM THE ZOO“Escape From the Zoo are one of those bands where you are expecting a mellow trip down Mr. Toads wild ride, and suddenly realize you accidentally got in line for a death coaster that speeds down the track at 70 miles per hour, with no seat belts” – PunkRock Newshttps://escapefromthezoo.bandcamp.com/PUBLIC SERPENTSPublic Serpents are the product of an experiment gone wrong, mankind. A paranoid schizophrenic layering of chatter fused with manic, ghetto/punk beats make for a proper background to the apocalypse professed by the bands frontman, Skwert.https://tentcityrecords.bandcamp.com/album/public-serpents-escape-from-the-zoo-split-epTHE LOOMS Anarcho-Folk Punks occupying the imperialist territory known as ‘South Jersey’! The Looms are a rambunctious crew that brings a great time wherever they go. Inspired by punk, folk, ska, old union songs, and a bit of prog and pop; their lyrics range from calls to revolution, comradery, solidarity, and having too many holes in your socks. Comprised of a philosopher, a film connoisseur, and the Twin Loom nurses, they’re always down for a conversation—to hear your story, or share one of their own! https://www.thelooms.band/
Guerrilla Warfare ~ Freeze MF ~ Promise Breaker ~ On Sight at Kung Fu Necktie
*All events are 21+ valid ID required for entry*7 PM Doors7:30 PM ShowFREEZE MFFreeze MF blends ice cold, rock n roll themes of guttural punk vocal stylings, hardcore intensities, and dance-like grooves that are as violent as a Philadelphia drug bust. Freeze formed in the Spring of 2018 featuring Dom Stone (Vocals), Nick Malfara (Guitar), Matt Gausel (Drums), and Chris Freeze (Bass). Demo 18 was recorded by Dylan Tasch with the intention of writing driving, riff-fueled, hardcore-garage jams. Shortly thereafter, the band was tracking their first EP, Join or Die, in legendary Studio 4 with Phil Odom and added the MF moniker to their name. In the early winter of 2020, Freeze MF toured the East Coast to the Mid-West, brutally terrorizing boomers and Trump fanatics along the way. The band supported Kublai Khan TX, Rhythm of Fear, END, and Stray From the Path in their hometown of Gritty Philadelphia. In 2021, Freeze MF has released singles such as “Still Dying” and “Inside My Head”. All produced by Adam Cichocki at Timber Studios FFO: Turnstile, Rotting Out, Converge, 2000’s Slasher Films JOIN OR DIE.https://freezemf.bandcamp.com/album/join-or-dieGUERRILLA WARFARERiver City rap metal.https://gwarfareband.bandcamp.com/album/c-o-n-s-u-m-ePROMISE BREAKERNU | Violence from the deep heart of Pennsylvaniahttps://promisebreaker.bandcamp.com/ ON SIGHThttps://onsighthc.bandcamp.com/

Stinking Lizaveta ~ Microwaves ~ Faking at Kung Fu Necktie
*All events are 21+ valid ID required for entry*7 PM Doors7:30 PM ShowSTINKING LIZAVETAStinking Lizaveta is a power trio from Philadelphia, categorized as “doomjazz.”MICROWAVESOf innumerable bands that traffic in dissonance, the musick of Pittsburgh, PA’s Microwaves’ shears clean and hot as an oxy-lance through the defenses of even the most cynical noise rock aficionado. The trio plies a no-wave/prog-thrash scree that evokes the doings of today’s renegade wetware punks who shove glass-sheathed RFID chips and rare-earth magnets into fresh incisions – dimensions away from the bluesy shot-and-beer heartland rock of their local bar scene. Bursting forth with 2001’s “Professional Systems Overload” EP and the following year’s “System 2” (both featuring original bassist/vocalist Steve Moore, now of ZOMBI) John Roman (drums, formerly of the 1985, and current member of Night Vapor and Brown Angel) and David Kuzy (guitar, vocals) cycled through bass players for several years (including a stint as a synth/sampler-augmented duo) before joining with Johnny Arlett for their longest-running lineup to date. Over the years, Microwaves continued to pick up the loose ends left by Voivod, MX-80, Snakefinger, and some of their own Pittsburgh-area “math-rock” contemporaries, twisting them into a Gordian knot that at once rages and confounds. Their latest album, “Via Weightlessness,” tones down their previous effects-heavy approach, charging lean and unabated toward their dystopian vision. Kuzy’s guitar chimes through the mix with spindly atonal runs more akin to data streams spat from an outdated mainframe, alternately careening into chugging, crossover-thrash riffs. The Roman/Arlett rhythm section is much more than the sum of its parts: Beefheartian clamor served up with cyborg precision underpins overdriven bass, rumbling forth frenziedly as a DMT-dosed rhino. Kuzy, the paranoid town crier, and Arlett, the unhinged shrieker, deliver a twin-vocal assault covering most topics previously found in your local video rental shop’s cult/sci-fi section. FAKINGFAKING is a noise rock trio from Philadelphia that blends angular aggression, brooding filth, and mathy weirdness. Giant pounding drums, biting bass synth, and harsh guitar riffs that bleed into reverb drenched seasick leads create the odd-time foundation while vocals scream and holler about shitty people doing shitty things.
