This bill promises to deliver a huge hit of face-melting metal. Deafheaven’s (pictured) most recent release, “Black Brick,” a B-side from their last album, Ordinary Corrupt Human Love, is metal AF, with frontman George Clarke’s gremlin growl set amid a wall of distortion and metal riffs. Fellow metalsmiths Baroness are set to release a new album, Gold and Grey, later this year and have been performing songs from the upcoming release on this tour. Openers Zeal & Ardor, who just released a new live album, Live in London, forge a different kind of metal that’s sometimes black, sometimes bluesy.
$25 ($22.50 adv.).
