Dub Trio releases “IV” at Mercury Lounge on 11.10

The Dub Trio guys are a little bit like the intellectuals of the NYC Metal scene. Being an intellectual metal-head is a little bit like being a powerful super-hero who writes essays for a living (since super-heroes aren’t paid, right?). I mean, it’s really like having it all, the superior brains and the brute force. As suggested by the name, they mix Metal with Dub, but also inject a fair dose of noise rock in their tracks. Their experimentalism is not of the self-indulgent kind – led by drummer/sample triggerer John Tomino, these guys are concise, tight, and explosive. If this resonates with you, don’t miss the release of their new album "IV" at Mercury on 11.10.
