High on Fire

Where: 40watt

Date: 2007-10-02 21:00:00

Type:

High on Fire, featuring former members of the defunct, post-metal outfit Sleep, shares a similar penchant for brutal audio assaults as well as furious and unrelenting bouts of mind-altering heaviness. Formed in Brooklyn in 2000, this five-member group performs punk music with a political theme. Mono plays amazingly loud instrumental rock. The group is originally from Japan.

Dinosaur Jr

Where: 40 Watt Club

Date: 2007-12-03 21:00:00

Type:

Dinosaur Jr. reunites for this brief series of shows, featuring original members J Mascis, Lou Barlow and Murph. All of the band's previous records have been reissued, in time for a new generation to enjoy. You can hear echoes of their sound every time a post-grunge band slugs out a chunky riff or when a jam band noodles its way to guitar nirvana. Dinosaur Jr was the perfect vehicle for singer/guitarist J. Mascis' unwieldy, gut-bucket guitar leanings, fusing them with singer-songwriter melodies and obfuscating lyrics that have become the hallmarks of grunge rock.
