WEEDEATER - sludgy smoke doom
w/ special guests LO-PAN & AMERICAN SHARKS

live at The Maywood
658 Maywood Avenue - Raleigh, NC
9p / $10 / 18+

With a sound and presence like no other, Weedeater stands apart from the rest, both live and on their recordings. Spite and deep resentment somehow fuse with comedy and maximum volume to produce an indignant, vomitous (both figuratively and sometimes literally) performance.

Pure, unabashed, musical violence in every form, delivering pissed-off attitude atop a bed of drenching fuzz. It's real, and it's dangerous, and it feels so damn good. A slithering journey though a sludgy world of viscous, black molasses riffs that are punctuated by cannon drums and some of the most memorable lyrics.

LO-PAN - heady stoner grooves (Small Stone)

Lo-Pan is a Columbus, Ohio based quartet whose latest offering SALVADOR provides a cavalcade of stoner grooves that hit hard and leave marks. This troupe dishes out heaping helpings of thick guitars and rollicking bass and drums, topped off with a soaring lead vocal that combines the grace of Maynard Keenan and the grit of John Garcia. Exhibiting the ability to compose tunes that sting like a smack to the face and possess the imminence of hardcore, yet can also calmly float overhead, Lo-Pan commandeers a cross-section of fuzzed-out down-tuned excellence that can confidently stand shoulder to shoulder with the pioneers of the genre.

AMERICAN SHARKS - heavy rockin' foursome outta Austin, TX.
"Seventies rock and punk with a metallic 1990s sheen... likened to Supersuckers and New Bomb Turks. Better yet, Mike Hardin snaps a much deeper, knee-deep-in-blooze Danzig/Gary Floyd growl. California desert rock meets Texan grand slam...crossing Blackfoot and Priest." - Raoul Hernandez (Austin Chronicle)
