Can you feel the winter cold seep into your bones, clasping at your very soul as the days grow shorter? Are you all spooked about it? If so, quit it—Húrra’s got you covered. They’re hosting the meeting of three banging hXc punk acts to keep your blood pumpin’. Known for their unrelenting, savage live shows (and great début/middling rest-of-catalogue) Americans Every Time I Die headline a night of ultra-cathartic heaviness that also features Mercy Buckets—and legendary Icelandic punks Celestine (they’re back? That’s AMAZING NEWS!!!). Expect a full house, with just enough room to headbang your way into an emergency chiropractor appointment the day after.
Gaukurinn is hosting another open jam session! New, amazing, magical, musical things happen here, both for audience and performers! Show up in droves, bring all of your friend(s)!
