Hello everyone!

I'm pleased to announce a show happening Sunday, June 29 at No Radio
Records. Noise-rock guitar/electronics maverick Eskimo King (Brian
Sullivan of MOUTHUS) and hypnotic, otherworldly lo-fi free noise/drone
duo THE SKATERS will perform together for an incredible double bill.
Also, Brian from Mouthus and Zac David of Lambsbread will play a duo
set as well. (now that makes it a triple bill)

Not only that, but in an incredible moment of serendipity, Table of
the Elements post-punk industrial innovators NEPTUNE — think homemade
scrap metal instruments and experimental drone and clang — will join
the bill (That makes it a quadruple bill, whew!!!). A trio widely
regarded for their intense, brutal live performances, Neptune play
noisy, industrial art-rock ala German pioneers Einstürzende Neubauten
or Brits Throbbing Gristle... or even fellow Bostonians Mission of
Burma, at least in their more unhinged moments.

From Pfork (in case you need any more convincing):

>>>>Neptune really do accurately approximate in their music the tragic and violent desolation of the auto graveyards from which they draw their raw materials. The fact that the guitar and bass are built from metal affects the timbre of the instruments, the bass sounding harsh, almost distorted, while the guitar rings with surprising clarity. Percussionists John Douglas Manson and Daniel Paul Boucher naturally sound like they're banging on archaic VCR casings, gutters and miter boxes, but they play their traps as though they were normal drum sets... The cumulative effect of all this is a sound that's sort of familiar, but just off enough from a conventional arrangement to be disconcerting. The songs are tightly wound nailbombs of rapidly shifting meters, clanging rhythms, and mathtacular start/stop passages designed for maximum sensory damage.<<<<

Yes! Finally, anybody who missed Mouthus or The Skaters perform at No
Radio Records earlier this year should NOT miss out this time around.
And if you were able to catch either act when they passed through
town, this is an exciting opportunity to see them share a room
together, and with Neptune.

To recap:
