The Underground Stage
Show Notes “The Grand Union open Frankie’s 9th birthday with no fucks given or a single hold barred, screaming and hollering chunks of thick rock showering the crowd, bouncing off our heads.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
Show Notes “Start Your Own Cult play their last show of the year and just plain land it tonight – tech gremlins and all – fast and hard. Few bands work as hard to work a crowd, and few bands work as hard to make sure we’re left fizzing like goons. Always a pleasure to […]
Show Notes “Decapitators’ set stalks among us, hooded and menacing, occasionally baring its fangs. Its strength is in its restraint, power lurking in the shadows, danger just beyond the reach of the light.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
Show Notes “Sunder bound into the set like a puppy out of a box, endless enthusiasm and joy just for being on stage. Clean tones and a winged vocal ping off the walls, all smiles and all good times.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
Show Notes “By turns haunting, ferocious, and gazing at its shoes, Julia Why? rounds out the night with a beast of a set, delivered with joy but providing a certain chill up the spine.

Show Notes “After much technical jiggery-pokery involving a busted lead, and – I swear – some actual magic tricks, Clay J Gladstone don’t so much start their set as detonate. Five months of delayed-gig frustration pelts the room, a shockwave of monstrously well-honed songs delivered with ferocious energy and boundless joy.” Gallery Learn More Facebook […]
Show Notes “Wolf & Chain are born performers, but none of tonight’s set is merely performative. Emo-punk served up straight from the bleeding guts, the songs are as sharp as a filed nail, and just as likely to gouge your eye out.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | Instagram
