Patch: Deathpop
Mary Bue and the Holy Bones: indie rock w/ a singer-songwriter past

Genrebeast is a series of five album release parties from five wildly different bands by the same musician. Each night of the series will be held at Gamut Gallery, during the closing night of their next five exhibitions.
We believe music is about art movement, not genre; community, not scene; playing, not partying.
These are real live parties, and not stuffy soirees. Bring ear plugs.
===PRESS RELEASE===
FOLKLORE REMIX: A three-artist exhibition focused on remixing mythology with street art sensibility showcasing original artwork by Rodrigo Oñate Roco, Luis Fitch & Repo.
For the closing reception of Folklore Remix, we'll be welcoming back the genre-obliterating project, Genrebeast for their third CD release party featuring the live musical stylings of Patch. Combing industrial dance grooves a la Nine Inch Nails, the bombastic garage guitar rock of Queens of the Stone Age and Metz, and the concept album method of storytelling used by the likes of Pink Floyd and The Mars Volta, Patch creates an original, energetic and cathartic sound they have opted to call 'deathpop.'
Featuring live music from opening acts "indie rock w/ a singer-songwriter past" Mary Bue and the Holy Bones, plus noisepop/shoesleeze from Blood Cookie.
ABOUT THE ART EXHIBIT:
In Gamut's featured exhibition, Folklore Remix, artists "Roco," Fitch, & Repo do not simply retell the stories of their childhood; they remix them. They have retrofitted their Mexican, Central American, and Minnesotan mythologies with a crisp, vibrant street art sensibility. Like old school vinyl on a DJs turntable, each artists cultural background is spun, scratched, and remade into works of art that are altogether fresh and new.
