Metal Night with Gothika, Distance/Time, Reefamancers, and Stag
About this Event
Boy when it rains, it rains blood at the Rock Shack! Join us for a heavy night you won't soon forget. Gothika showcases the gothic metal genre, drawing elements from goth rock/post-punk, doom metal, progressive rock/metal, and extreme metal.
NYC based band Distance/Time seamlessly blends melody & aggression which leads to dynamic songs & unforgettable live performances. Easily one of the youngest bands proficiently operating in the Modern Metalcore scene, Distance/Time creates songs that manage to simultaneously be relentlessly brutal yet fun & uplifting with roots in the Metalcore, Post-Hardcore & Progressive Metal genres. Reefamancers is driven by a heavy, sludgy, and gloomy aesthetic, with the perfect blend of bone-crushing low-end and atmospheric intensity. Stag is a relatively new thrash/punk metal band that harkens back to the glory days of the big 4, Slayer, Anthrax, Metallica, and Megadeth but with their own modern spin.
