Today Is the Day (US / Bmg Music) - 30th anniversary Euro tour
Today Is the Day has been one of the most groundbreaking and unclassifiable entities in experimental music for nearly thirty years, achieving notoriety on fabled bastions of both noise-rock (Amphetamine Reptile) and metal (Relapse, Southern Lord). For such a bold and uncompromising artist, frontman Steve Austin has been a reliably prolific fixture both on wax and the live stage.
Their last album, No Good to Anyone, represents the literal sound of a man rising from the darkest and lowest point of his life to a new plateau, delivering one of the most dynamic and poignant records in the band's enduring and ongoing legacy.
Steve Austin has performed on and produced Burn the Priest, the self-titled album from the band that would evolve into Grammy-nominated juggernaut Lamb of God, introduced the world to half of Grammy-winning juggernaut Mastodon by showcasing Bill Kelliher and Brann Dailor as the rhythm section on Today Is the Day's crushing 1999 lp In the Eyes of God, toured with first-ballot extreme music Hall of Famers ranging from Motörhead and Morbid Angel to Neurosis and the Melvins, has been called onstage to share his unmistakable voice with iconic veterans Brutal Truth, Napalm Death and Sick of It All, and more.

Des Yeux (Brussels) - New album release show
Brussels-based trio Des Yeux will present their new album Fractures (to be released on Navalorama Records), a mix of noise, drone and krautrock influences. Having dropped overdriven guitars for the time of a record, the band assembles pachydermic bass lines, processionary drum patterns, synth layers and a haunted spoken word to create a state of slow trance. Fractures contains one single heavy, dense, monolithic and repetitive 35-minute-long track, inviting you to close your eyes and enjoy sub-frequencies carved to vibrate the organs.
