Crustcake Picks - LA Shows 3/20 - 3/26

Crustcake Picks - LA Shows

by beatmasterspeech (LA)

Ok people, I’m fucking swamped with work right now but I care about y'all (as much as passive blogger can) and I want to throw some shit out there so people can get pumped on live music.

Tonight, Relax Bar plays host to highly praised crusty blackened Atlanta outfit Withered who will be supported by local favorites The Funeral Pyre.

The Funeral Pyre - "Wounds":



Withered - "Silent Grave":



Also tonight, get your head smashed at the Key Club with Nile, The Faceless, Suicide Silence, and Nachtmystium. Nile has never let me down in terms of limitless death metal, and what else can be said about Nachmystium? You’ll find yourself humming their riffs for the rest of the week.

Download: Nile - "Lashed to The Slave Stick" [MP3]
Download: Suicide Silence - "Ending Is The Beginning" [MP3]

Saturday, you'll be at Tony’s Bar seeing Intronaut, Yakuza, and The Fucking Wrath (oh shit!!!). If you still haven’t gotten your fix of sweep arpeggios and blast beats, stop by The Whiskey and be pummeled into submission by techy grind masters Beneath The Massacre.

Download: Yakuza - "Cancer of Industry" [MP3]
Download: Beneath The Massacre - "Society’s Disposable Son" [MP3]

Oh yeah, hip hop poet Saul Williams is at The Troubadour on Saturday as well if you need to mix things up a bit.
