The Black Dahlia Murder
Where: El Corazon

Detroit's The Black Dahlia Murder actually sound like they should live in Scandinavia, from whence originates much of the frenetic brand of death and black metal that inspires them. Formed in 2001, the group followed their six-song 'What a Horrible Night to Have a Curse' demo with the four-track 'A Cold-Blooded Epitaph E.P.,' which was released on their own Lovelost Records. With a number of acclaimed concerts appearances like the Milwaukee Metal Fest already under their belts, the group then signed with Metal Blade in 2003 and were soon recording their debut album 'Unhallowed.' Hate Eternal features Erik Rutan from Ripping Corpse and Morbid Angel.

Aleksandar Hemon is the author of two enthusiastically received books: The Question of Bruno and National Book Critics Circle Award finalist Nowhere Man. A frequent contributor to The New Yorker, Hemon has won numerous prestigious awards for his work, including a recent MacArthur Foundation “genius grant.” Now, Riverhead Books is excited to be publishing Hemon’s novel, THE LAZARUS PROJECT, on May 1, 2008. In an early review, BookForum wrote, “The Lazarus Project is the fearless and spirited expression of a turbulent literary talent and, at the same time, a cold, fierce blast of moral outrage. For all Hemon’s nods to other writers—one catches glimpses not only of Nabokov and Sebald but of Bulgakov, Pamuk, Amis, Poe—he is entirely his own man, an original who owes no debts to anyone.”
