EAST NORTH TO PLAY FREE SHOW AT EARSHOT

LOCAL POST-PROG-INSTRUMENTAL QUARTET EAST NORTH TO PLAY AT EARSHOT 9/18 7pm
.. Pulling influences from Post-Rock bands like Explosions in the Sky and Mogwai, East North pursues inspirational instrumental music with a clever nod towards Prog-Rock. Imagine the strong musical imagery of Godspeed You! Black Emperor melting with the progressive tendencies of Yes. Formed nearly two years ago, East North spent much time scrutinizing every note of their songs to make sure that nothing would come off as cliché or insincere. With everyone pushed to the edge of their musical ability, Chas Whitmire (guitar), Drew Mashburn (guitar), Matt Mashburn (bass), and Christopher Morris (drums) still manage to put a lot showmanship into their performances while maintaining sonic integrity. If you like Post-Rock, but are looking for something new, you need to hear or see East North.

GRAVES OF VALOR IN-STORE & CD RELEASE PARTY!

Sorry folks! We've been doing most of our short updates through TWITTER, so that's why this guys is getting neglected. We have great news! Relapse's Graves of Valor will perform for free and have a release party for their new cd "Salarian Gate" at Earshot on Friday May 29th at 8pm! Here is a tiny bio of Graves of Valor:
GRAVES OF VALOR (ex-Through the Eyes of the Dead) explode to the forefront of the modern extreme metal scene with their Relapse debut ‘Salarian Gate’. The quintet’s razor-sharp attack melds a traditional metal spirit with 21st century extremity to establish GRAVES OF VALOR as one of the most promising new death metal bands in years. As songs such as “Locusta”, “Pestilence”, and the title track prove, ‘Salarian Gate’ is a massive debut and one of the best death metal albums of 2009.
