Tonight: Nightmare Air // Problem With Dragons // Oxen // Dead Empires

Let me come right at you here:

The bands tonight will slay you with rock.

Now, you do have to have a pallet for heavy stoner-sludge-epic-prog-doom-massive-rock to get properly slayed(and if you don't have a pallet for that then...."sorry"). But seriously, we do so we're psyched!! Click the links below to hear the bands, (really, do it. Get active, be involved...get off those sidelines of life...oh wait, ...went into a bit of motivational speaking there for a second...ok...back to the music!) --and take our word for this: they will rock you 1000 times harder live! So get here tonight and do it right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


NIGHTMARE AIR | "...meticulously layer boy-girl harmonies, psych noise loops, fuzz-ripped bass, and glam soaked walls of guitars..." http://store.goodnightrecords.com/album/high-in-the-lasers

DEAD EMPIRES | "...The band likes to combine a wide range of influences to produce a sound that sways from epic, ethereal soundscapes to heavy post-rock riffs, rounded out with good old fashioned sludgy heaviness..." http://deadempires.bandcamp.com/

OXEN | "...Oxen is a heavy transcendent rock band...with a vision to create heavy riffed accessible music..." http://oxenmass.bandcamp.com/album/the-glass-coffin

PROBLEM WITH DRAGONS | "...The guitars are riffy, fuzzy and played like actual battleaxes with actual blades on them; the vocals are almost Gregorian in their chant-like drones, the bass is sludgy and deliberate..." http://problemwithdragons.bandcamp.com/

Tonight (6:30-9pm): Mass Laughs Comedy Show, Two Year Anniversary!!

Tonight: The Reverie Machine // Huckleberry Binge // Wishbone Zoe

Woah--ooh--oh---oh---ooooh! We have a sweet show! Tonight! (now, go back and sing that sentence over a couple times. Cool...that's how we feel about the lineup, it makes us sing!) Three super-cool bands doing their things on a sweet Tuesday night, hell yeah! What else do you think you'd be doing that's better than that on a Tuesday night?? Right...nothing! So come here and party with:


THE REVERIE MACHINE:
Hailing from Portland Maine, the Reverie Machine creates a fusion of near ancient song writing and progressive instrumentation. Led by Meghan Yates's powerful and angelic voice, the songs beg the listener to delve inward and experience the music through their mind, body, and heart.
http://www.reveriemachine.com/


HUCKLEBERRY BINGE:
A whirl of fuzzed-out folk rock and murky pop anthems from Amherst, MA. Songs about villains, heroes, and nobodies in the ferment of The Digital Age. Dancy and dirgy.
http://huckleberrybinge.bandcamp.com/


WISHBONE ZOE:
Using looped, built-live vocal tracks stacked high like pancakes, 5 or 6 strings, a melodica and an orchestra of junk percussion and broken appliances, WZ delivers a mighty caterwaul of sound for such a quiet voice. For over three years she has traversed New England spinning devilishly dark tales that conjure up images of after-dark carnivals and grinning moon creatures as well as honest distortion-driven rock songs casually throwing concerned glances at the not-so-okay in the world.

Get here early tonight, get a good seat, prime your creative juices, and draw!!


"Since we all need to deal with Valentine's Day in some way or another during the month of February, we decided we're going to do our cabaret drawing class with lots of nasty zombies! Watch what happens when bad boy (and recently deceased!) Johnny Demonic comes to town, sending sweet Zadie Von Zyr head over heels in love- but will she make it okay? The fake blood we're mixing suggests... maybe.

If you've never been to a Dr. Sketchy's, it's a monthly cabaret life drawing event at the Elevens in Northampton, combining figure drawing with the principles of body-positive burlesque, tests of artistic skill, and drinking! There's also opportunities to win fantastic prizes from sponsors like Off The Map, FOE, Oh My!, Topatoco, Retrogenie, and Bon Appetit Burlesque!

Doors are at 7, models take the stage at 7:30!
$7 to cover the cost of T Virus vaccines, and fees involving there being no more room in Hell.
