About this Event

DARK MEDITATION may hail from Seattle, but their sound is steeped in traditions associated with other corners of the globe — England’s working-class cities, frosty Scandinavian towns, Southern California meccas of the ‘80s. Or as the band puts it, DARK MEDITATION sounds like the bastard amalgamation of Mercyful Fate and Judas Priest fighting it out on the Sunset Strip while Samhain and Killing Joke cheer them on.

While such reference points may suggest a nexus of evil kitsch and arena-level theatrics, the band’s debut album Polluted Temples comes from a place of down-and-out urgency and punk ethics, adopting the gloomy anthems and riff worship of heavy metal titans for their sonic exorcisms rather than their rock n’ roll panache. It’s an album that basks in big hooks, righteous guitar work, and an arena-level stomp without compromising any grit, grime, or guts.

NYX DIVISION is a four piece post-punk/goth/rock n roll band based out of Portland, Oregon. Members Cole Tucker (Temple of Angels/Haunter), Alex Rivas (Adrenochrome/False Figure/Cruz De Navajas/Zotz), Masӧn (Deras Krig/Lӧckheed/B-WARD), & Domîno Monët (OVER/Trance To The Moon) came from Texas, California, Mexico, & Idaho to join forces in 2021


NIGHTFEEDER play punishing, bitter, dingy punk with timeless catchy riffs played brutal and fast, with filthy breakdowns. Spiteful lyrics about the government not giving a fuck about you, colonialism and just having a hard time.

ZAZAZ bring expansive synth-and-drums journeys to the Seattle music scene. The trio's flamboyant melodies arc across the night sky like comets, ramping up the drama in your life to the third power. Evoking limitless space with heroic yet disciplined gestures and explosive rhythms, ZAZAZ are poised to score tomorrow's most extravagant science-fiction films.
