VulGarrity, Doomriders and Thunder


I just stumbled upon this band and their myspace while randomly clicking on listing links in the listings page. A brother and sister combo (truthfully? I have heard that one before so I am not 100 percent sold yet) that swap instruments through the entire set and sometimes throughout a song. The sound is sorta Kills meets Cars...sorta. On top of all that...they are from Providence. Somehow I have managed to not see or hear these guys yet but I am intrigued. I am guessing that I overlooked their and due to the similarity of their name to the plethora of "-ity" death metal bands. Anyway, They have a show in Feb at AS220.
I found this video kind of fun. It is like an 80's Hall and Oates video gone gnarly. Not safe for work or kiddies due to the pile of fake murder.



Also, this weekend has these two shows (same night). I will sadly only be able to make one for obvious reasons.

First, THUNDER IN THE BUCKET.
