THE BLACKENED MUSIC SERIES and BROOKLYN VEGAN Presents

GORGUTS, KRALLICE, and PORTAL with Bloody Panda

May 26 at the Knitting Factory, Brooklyn buy tickets

GORGUTS (Quebec)
First NYC show in 10 years from this massively influential technical death metal band. Their album Obscura is the holy grail of the genre.

KRALLICE (Brooklyn)
“One of the most interesting, engaging black metal bands to emerge in recent years.” – Pitchfork

PORTAL (Australia)
First ever NYC show from this costumed occult death metal band.
“Portal takes traditional death metal and douses it in chaotic noise, twisting the arrangements into serpentine blurs, so fast and furious that it almost becomes a buzzy blurry drone, any faster and it would be a full on noise record.” – Aquarius Records
WATCH a Portal performance here.

BLOODY PANDA (Brooklyn)
“Known for their daring stage shows, the band performs in executioner’s hoods and robes to amplify their Yoko Ono-meets-Black Sabbath (or SunnO)))-like) riff work.” – CMJ
