If you can’t appreciate the aggression, emotion and straight up virtuosity that produces up some of the best black metal/doom/hardcore music, then I question your roots in rock ‘n roll and music in general. This Thursday afternoon shake off your hipster timidness, release the inner punk rocker you once were and show some gusto at the Megaton Haus show freaturing Batton Rouge doom band Thou, midwest grindcore Cloud Rat, Oakland’s Reivers and Portland’s very own Contempt. While you’re there, pick up Contempt’s January release Skinwalker on cassette. The show starts at 1pm at 10128 NE Pacific st. Portland. – Travis Leipzig
