Information
The Victoria Ska & Reggae Society presents an evening of blistering hardcore featuring California legends Death By Stereo and the genre-warping La Armada. Thursday April. 9Lucky BarDoors: 7:30pm Since their inception in 1998, DEATH BY STEREO has been balancing consciousness and chaos with their unique genre-bending amalgam of hardcore, metal and punk. DBS, as they are known by many of their loyal followers, have assembled a worldwide fan base built upon a seemingly endless international tour schedule, with enough passport stamps to make many of their contemporaries jealous. They have shared the stage many times over with the likes of Slipknot, AFI, Serj Tankian, Avenged Sevenfold, and Rise Against, just to name a few.A punk band at heart, LA ARMADA utilize elements of Afro-Caribbean rhythms and metal to create a style as unique as their story. Formed in the Dominican Republic in 2001 from where they dominated the Caribbean scene for years, the band opted to take a leap and relocate to Chicago in 2008, where they still reside. Influenced by bands ranging from the Bad Brains to Death, they take elements from their native Islands music to conjure a unique recipe; explosive live energy, and a clear cut narrative that highlights the effects of neo-colonialism on vulnerable communities.Drawing influences from California acts such as NOFX, Pennywise, and RKL, SAFE DECISIONS play breakneck skate punk imbued with dazzling riffs, rapid drumming, and irreverent humour. This band hits hard and fast, capturing the sound of a perfectly executed kickflip circa 1997. Loud, in-your-face, and absolutely built for the mosh, SAFE DECISIONS will make sure your heart rate stays elevated
