Ruin Dweller
The Door, a punk and metal shop plopped in the middle of a strip mall on Monona Drive, has opened up a whole new world for music fans who may not always find what they're looking for at Madison’s other fine record stores. Seven loud and proud regional bands will take the stage to celebrate The Door’s fourth anniversary. They include Madison’s own Whippets, Ruin Dweller and Calamity, along with Tantivy (Wausau), Ashbringer (Minneapolis), and Contracharge and Lethal Shöck (both from Chicago). Tickets are cheap, too — $10 at The Door and $12 at the door.
The Door anniversary concert. $12 ($10 adv.).
media release: The Door metal/punk record store is having their 4th Anniversary show.

LETHAL SHOCK
Lethal Shock drinks from the purest well of Heavy Metal glory and pisses out their own brand - Atomik Metal. A bastardization of D-beat, Speed and Heavy Metal with majestic guitar solos, they definitely don't re-invent the wheel, they just cover it with spikes, light it on fire, and hurl it down a mountain towards a church picnic while slamming Coors banquet beer and hailing the goat. Solidified, electrified, and drunkified, LETHAL SHOCK is the vomit coated boot on the back of every poseur's skull. Prepare yourself for the atomik age of Metal!!! https://lethalshock.bandcamp.com/album/evil-aggressor
