Plan Your Week of Triangle Entertainment

This week’s Triangle entertainment schedule offers everything from arena-ready R&B and Latin music to rock, blues, indie shows, orchestral performances, and stand-up comedy.

Friday and Saturday contain the largest concentration of events, so concertgoers should account for downtown traffic, parking, venue entry procedures, and overlapping showtimes when making plans. Tickets for major performers and smaller-capacity venues may sell quickly.

Artists, times, venues, ticket availability, and entry requirements are subject to change. Confirm all details with the official venue or ticket provider before purchasing tickets or traveling to an event.

Happy 67th Birthday to Chris Reece, American musician, drummer of The Lewd and Social Distortion, born on this day in 1959.

Here with Mike Ness in his own restaurant 'The Pike'.

Intenté acercarme al escenario principal, donde #SocialDistortion, una de las bandas favoritas de los azkeneros, ya habían comenzado su show.

Por lo que he escuchado, a la gente no les acabó de convencer el concierto, posiblemente porque Mike Ness está aún tocado con lo de su cáncer.

#SOCIALDISTORTION Attention à la vague punk-rock californienne ! Social Distortion, “Social D” pour les intimes, s’invite sur la scène du Hellfest Open Air pour dompter la houle clissonnaise. Social Distortion, c’est près de cinquante ans de carrière : fondé en 1978 par son pilier Mike Ness, le groupe s’est imposé comme une référence de la scène punk-rock californienne. Formé…

Folgendes: Verpasst, zwei Tickets für #SocialDistortion am 30.6. in HH zu kaufen. Ausverkauft. Kriegt man irgendwo seriös noch 'ne Chance? Das Internet ist ja voller Müll.

When I saw this I admit I had doubts, but it's pretty dang good.

ETA: This song is approaching Hallelujah levels of being covered, innit? 😆 I still like it though.

#MondayCovers #SocialDistortion

Once, punk ruled my heart as jealously as metal. I loved the heart-in-hand abandon and DIY ethos of acts like Rise Against, Social Distortion, Bad Religion, and Descendants,1 and though I still do metal nonetheless won out as my root genre. But punk and metal have always overlapped, and when the two offshoots of rock tango together, great things can happen.2 German death metallers Arroganz have been carrying out this uneasy marriage since 2008, dropping six testaments of metallic brutality and punkish rebellion over the years. Longtime bassist/vocalist -K- and drummer -T- are joined by the newcomer guitarist -B- for lucky number seven, Death Doom Punks, a declaration of purpose if there’s ever been one. I love the attitude, but an album can’t live by ‘tude alone. Will Arroganz’s infusion of punkish qualities into the death metal elevate Death Doom Punks, or will it merely spell death/doom for these punks?

Other bands have put death riffs over d-beats before, but Arroganz channel early Immolation/Death through Black Flag/Discharge-like hardcore grime in a way that feels particularly vital on Death Doom Punks. Whether through blistering speeds like on “Pain Forged Armor” or diabolical groove on “Anti-Ideology,” Arroganz’s knack for aggressive and catchy riffcraft keeps a near-constant stankface plastered over my skull. Classic death metal walking riffs meet soaring doom bass leads on “Die for Nothing,” while “Death Doom Punks” marries hardcore and doom into a gloomy, potent combo that reminded me that Caskets Open exists. Songs on Death Doom Punks are brief and intentionally simple, but hear the spider-y basslines on “Earth’s Final Dose,” the gigantic belting and bass-work over “Under Scarred Skin,” or the gnarly death march of “Spirit Arsonist” and know that Arroganz supercharged everything they wrote with everything they had. Simply, Death Doom Punks is what it says it is, and it’s awesome.

That Death Doom Punks is Arroganz’s seventh album is no surprise, as their chemistry and chops are something else. Rhythmically, Arroganz seamlessly slide into a snarling breakdown one moment on “Arsenic Breath” and throw down thrash stampedes the next on “Incubus’ Veins.” -K- is a beast of a bassist and vocalist, littering Death Doom Punks with nimble and concussive bass riffs and punk-influenced leads while bellowing throaty, acerbic condemnations of society. -B- fits Arroganz like a fingerless glove, clobbering Death Doom Punks with crushing grooves on the title track,3 gnarled and disjointed leads on “Pain Forged Armor,” and entwining leads with -K-‘s bass licks on “Arsenic Breath.” Arroganz play well together, and Death Doom Punk’s organic production and surprisingly dynamic mix make it apparent. The snare pop right, the bass warbles and clicks right, the guitar is crunchy and deep and everything sits just right in the mix. Arroganz may be no-good punks, but Death Doom Punks is clearly the product of adamant professionals and experts of their craft.

Arroganz’s most critical success is in knowing when to switch something up. Again, Death Doom Punks’ songs are on the simple side, but Arroganz shuffle through riffs, refrains, and bridges often enough to spare the listener from boredom while affording ideas enough time to settle to save themselves from riff salad. Frequent tempo shifts electrify Death Doom Punks further, spinning “Spirit Arsonist”‘s plodding bass riff into a total death metal meltdown and opening “Die for Nothing”‘s relentless show of force in the bridge for a righteous display of bass-forward doom. Conversely, the relatively static one-two combo of “Incubus’ Veins” and “Earths Final Dose” mark Death Doom Punk’s low point. Though -K-‘s screams sound more cutting than usual on “Incubus’ Veins” and “Earths Final Dose” features some slick fills from -T-, they don’t offer as much diversity as the other tracks and feel a bit one-track as a result. But that stretch is an exception to the rule of Death Doom Punks, which is largely a wild ride front-to-back.

Death Doom Punks sees ass, and it kicks it, no questions asked. I had never heard a lick of Arroganz before diving into Death Doom Punks—the title just sounded funny to me—but they’ve quickly made a fan of me over the weeks. The riffs are relentless. The hooks are huge. Did I mention the bass lines rock? Arroganz are simply a potent entity who know who they are and what they do well, and it comes through on Death Doom Punks. You should know it, too.

Está de absolutamente todo mi gusto el regreso de Social Distortion. Un disco con esencia punk, bien rockero, pero también nostálgico y sensible por momentos. Además trae un cover de «Wicked Games», de Chris Isaak, que está bien bonito. 👌🏻

#SocialDistortion #Rock #ChrisIsaak

«Born To Kill» es el título del nuevo disco de Social Distortion, la banda neoyorquina de punk-rock. 15 años pasaron desde el anterior álbum «Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes».
