SUMMARY:Miniature Tigers
DESCRIPTION:915pm – Miniature Tigers\n8pm – Katzù Oso \nALL TIMES ARE APPROXIMATE AND SUBJECT TO CHANGE WITHOUT NOTICE. \nTICKETS WILL BE AVAILABLE AT THE DOOR FOR CASH OR CREDIT PURCHASE. \nBAR OPENS FOR FOOD & DRINK AT 6PM. HAPPY HOUR UNTIL 8PM.  \nThe sound is important but nothing is more important than the feeling of the sound. When Charlie Brand (vocals\, guitar) was writing the newest Miniature Tigers record\, he looked to the sum of his musical influences for inspiration. “I wanted to make something like Weezer’s Blue Album—not exactly the album\, but the feeling of listening to that album at age whatever. Something with that feeling that could connect with people.” That’s how the band had started\, after all: When he and founding member Rick Schaier (keys) connected over Myspace in the mid-’00s through their love of the same bands. After a few albums\, they brought on Algernon Quashie (guitar) and Brandon Lee (bass) to complete the band. \nThe resulting record\, Cruel Runnings\, is something halfway between nostalgia and the ecstatic now\, an album that yearns for the recent past while staring open-hearted at what the present dares to bring. Songs about swimming pools remembered on sticky summer nights\, lovers meeting at discotheques\, streets where you used to live. Let’s just try to be as much of us as possible\, Brand decided during the recording process. In that\, Miniature Tigers have written a record that’s eminently relatable\, passionate but not without a healthy sense of perspective. Recorded in Jamaica with producer Chris Zane (The Walkmen\, Passion Pit) the album sounds as freeing as the process felt. “There was just a different energy there\, a different energy in such a relaxing environment\,” he says. “Everything came very naturally.” That’s fitting of a record where Brand wanted to capture the way a relationship—and through that\, life—really felt. “Not necessarily something that was good and got bad\,” he says\, “but the ups and downs of it.” \n

SUMMARY:BLUEWRECK
DESCRIPTION:Consisting of four friends from the Washington D.C area\, Bluewreck started out just like any other band would. By getting together in a hot basement and playing\, revamping\, and making some of their favorite songs sound even heavier. Soon afterward\, they all felt a natural chemistry between the four of them\, who had been playing in different bands since they met in high school\, but never together. They soon began writing\, and eventually recording their first EP\, which would be released in March of 2018. Following this release\, they played some of D.C’s best venues. Including Union Stage\, Jammin Java\, and Tally Ho Theatre in Leesburg. During this time\, they continued writing for what would eventually become their first album\, Out Of Control. Out Of Control was released on all streaming platforms in August of 2018. Following a headlining show at Rock And Roll Hotel and DC9\, Bluewreck released a single\, titled Coming Down in March of 2019. In March\, they were added as direct support for People’s Blues Of Richmond\, and just recently landed opened slots for King Buffalo\, Jessy Wilson\, and Paris_Monster. Above all else\, Bluewreck aims to provide a good time at their live shows. They aim to get down\, get loud\, and make some sonic witchcraft along the way. \n

SUMMARY:CHURCH OF MISERY
DESCRIPTION:Tickets on sale Friday February 23 at NOON  \n \nCHURCH OF MISERY was founded by Tatsu Mikami (bass guitar) back in 1995. After the breakup of his leading thrash metal band SALEM (that had toured in the UK several times and received critical acclaim from metal fans as well as the press) Tatsu decided to start his own solo project. He wanted to do something that reflected his other musical inspirations – doom metal and doom rock. Apart from metal and thrash\, he was strongly influenced by doom bands like SAINT VITUS\, BLACK SABBATH and became aware that his own riffs had started to include doom vibes. Also\, he was very much into late 60’s/early 70’s heavy rock material like LEAF HOUND\, NOVEMBER\, MAY BLITZ\, HIGH TIDE\, GUN\, BLUE OYSTER CULT and so on. It was natural for him to shift his musical direction from metal to a more rock-influenced style. \nIn 1995\, Tatsu formed a band with Tomohiro Nishimura (guitar)\, Hideki Shimizu (drums)\, Kazuhiro Asaeda (vocals)\, that was named CHURCH OF MISERY. In April-June 1996\, they recorded their very first demo entitled “ADV.1996.” Copies of this demo were sent to fanzines\, labels\, and bands overseas. They originally intended this as a promotional pack for friends in the underground doom scene. But Doom Records (USA) released the demo as “Vol.1” without the permission of the band. They hadn’t expected anything like that to happen and of course made a complaint to the label. Ironically\, as a result of this bootleg release\, their name became well known amongst doom metal listeners all over the world. About 10 years later\, “Vol.1” was released officially for the first time on Leaf Hound Records (JAPAN). \nIn 1997\, Japanese label Cornucopia Records released a compilation record “Doomsday Recitation” that featured four Japanese doom bands ETERNAL ELYSIUM\, MILLARCA\, BERENICE and CHURCH OF MISERY. At the time\, CHURCH OF MISERY had a new singer\, Nobukazu Chow. In 1998\, with this line-up\, they released an EP called “TASTE THE PAIN” on Bad Acid Records (UK) and a split CD\, “BORN TOO LATE” with Canadian doom band SHEAVY. Back then\, they started to play gigs constantly\, mainly in the Tokyo area and started to build a good reputation with underground metal fans in Japan. \nIn 2000\, Tatsu reformed the band with new members Yoshiaki Negishi (vocals)\, and Junji Narita (drums)\, and they started to use analog synthesizers on stage. Elements of krautrock and psychedelia\, add further elements that work effectively with their evil lyric theme of serial killers. The new singer Negishi’s hardcore punk/thrash/death metal background gave more aggressive edges to the band’s sound\, and CHURCH OF MISERY’s music started to sound much more brutal than ever before. \nIn 2001\, they finally released their first full-length album “Master Of Brutality” via Southern Lord Recordings (USA). Doom metal/rock listeners all over the world were totally fascinated by their unique doom-gloom-bizarre songs\, sounds\, and lyrics. As a result this unique band acquired the undisputable reputation as “the heaviest band from Japan”. Unfortunately\, guitar player Nishimura left the band soon after the release of their debut album for personal reasons\, but his successor Takenori Hoshi’s guitar playing suited the band’s direction perfectly. In short\, Hoshi was more deeply into 70’s heavy/psychedelic/blues rock like Peter Green (FLEETWOOD MAC)\, Manuel Gottsching (ASH RA TEMPEL) etc\, etc. However\, three years later\, singer Negishi left the band because of musical/lyrical differences\, and was replaced by Hideki Fukasawa who used to be the front man for Yamanashi hardcore/death metal band BLEED FOR PAIN. \nIn 2004\, with this new lineup\, they released their second full length album called “The Second Coming” on DIWPHALANX RECORDS (JAPAN). Their music style became not only more mature\, but also even more brutal and bizarre\, and it heavily terrorized both the doom listeners and bands on this planet. Since then\, they have toured in Europe/US frequently and have shared the stage with famed and infamous western bands such as SAINT VITUS\, CATHEDRAL\, EYEHATEGOD\, ELECTRIC WIZARD\, ORANGE GOBLIN\, FIREBIRD\, THE GATES OF SLUMBER\, DEATH ROW\, ANGEL WITCH\, etc. etc. Also\, they have appeared in renowned metal/rock festivals in Europe/USA such as Roadburn (Holland)\, Hellfest (France)\, and Maryland Deathfest (USA) to date. Their reputation abroad continued to grow and grow as time went by. \nIn 2006\, guitar player Hoshi left the band due to personal issues\, and was replaced by Australian guitarist Tom Sutton who had lived in Japan for years. Tom had often taken part at CHURCH OF MISERY gigs and was well known to the band. He was such a huge fan of the band that he knew and could play almost all the band’s songs at their first studio session. With this new lineup\, they wrote and recorded their third album “Houses Of The Unholy” that was released via Rise Above Records (UK) in 2009. With this release they created another murder-doom classic and had great reactions from people in the doom scene. But\, shortly after the completion of this record\, the singer Hideki left the band for personal reasons\, literally disappearing from his colleagues. So\, the band was joined by the previous (also the successor to Hideki) singer Yoshiaki Negisi. With Negishi as a frontman again\, the band flew to Europe and USA for more extensive tours. \nAfter the release of “Houses Of The Unholy”\, they continue to go to western countries over and over again\, and had some fantastic tours with the mighty doom-sludger’s EYEHATEGOD. Besides this\, they headlined in the US for the first time. After the tours for “Houses Of The Unholy”\, Tom decided to leave the band because of a move to England\, but the band had been through a pretty difficult time while seeking his successor\, and out of goodwill Tom continued with the tour. \nIn 2012\, ex-EARTH BLOW guitar player\, Kensuke Suto joined the CHURCH OF MISERY camp and they toured in Europe. But after this tour\, the band parted ways with Suto and Negishi due to musical and personal differences. Tatsu and Junji contacted the previous singer Hideki\, and they decided on a reunion\, joined by new guitar player Ikuma Kawabe (ex-DHIDALAH) in late May 2012.With this new line-up\, they started writing and recording the new record\, and completed it on January 26\, 2013. The new album\, Thy Kingdom Scum will be out very soon via Rise Above Records (UK) and Metal Blade Records (USA). The title Thy Kingdom Scum will remind hardcore CHURCH OF MISERY fans of their early years track called “Kingdom Scum”in”Vol.1”. This record includes a cover song “One Blind Mice”\, originally written by UK/70’s Hammond organ rock trio QUATERMASS. \n

SUMMARY:Justin Jones
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS GO ON SALE FRIDAY JANUARY 10 AT 10AM  \n“I was raised on blues and soul music. When I look at the core of myself\, my name is Luther and I’m a 68-year-old black guy with one green eye and a couple gold teeth and I play harmonica in a blues band that plays at a dump in the ghetto. Nobody comes to the gigs\, and I’ll have played there my whole life—like\, five days a week my band plays there. One night\, Keith Richards is in town and he comes in and jams with me. Word gets around and someone recorded it and then that record gets released\, and I die the day before it gets released. When it’s released\, it’s the biggest blues hit since Stevie Ray Vaughan. On the inside\, that’s what I look like.” \nJustin Jones is “rock and roll….No Auto-Tune\, no gimmicks—just a songwriter with a guitar and a crack band\,” says The Vinyl District’s Jennifer Carney. With a musical career that spans more than a decade\, Virginia native Justin Jones is taking his soul-stirring brand of rock and roll on the road for his I Can Feel It Tour 2013 of the U.S. \nWeaned on the sounds of southern soul\, blues\, and rock\, Jones started playing open mic nights in Charlottesville near his hometown in his early teens. His first album\, Blue Dreams – recorded in 2004\, is the cornerstone of what turns out to be this prolific singer-songwriter’s catalog of albums\, including Love Versus Heroin\, I Am the Song of the Drunkards\, and The Little Fox\, that express both the lows and highs of love and life. “The songs I write and the music my band and I play\, in my mind\, is quintessentially American… It lives and breathes in the landscape that is America… sometimes soulful and sometimes stark… sometimes hard and sometimes lush. I like to think I write beautiful songs about death\, sad songs about love\, and hopeful songs about life. What I consider a kind of secular spiritual music.” Fading Light\, Justin’s fifth album\, was released in 2012. Produced by Jamie Candiloro\, best known for his work with Ryan Adams and R.E.M.\, Fading Light is a collection of songs written over a two-year stretch. \nIn 2012\, Jones took his emotionally charged live show on the road. His busiest tour to date\, Jones and his band played 130 shows across North America\, including stops at Virgin Mobile Festival\, Floyd Festival\, and the Austin City Limits Music Festival (ACL). It is no wonder Speakers in Code names Justin Jones one of the top-ten performances at ACL 2012\, and Bob Boilen of NPR’s All Songs Considered lists Justin Jones “as one of the top performances of the year.” And all signs point to Justin Jones surpassing this momentum in 2013\, with a new album and documentary on the way\, an upcoming U.S. tour\, and talk of a European debut. \n
