The Invisible Orange presents: PURE LOVE ETERNAL PEACE with guests: BALKAN and FRANKLIN
PURE LOVE ETERNAL PEACE
Death psych doom trio based in the West Kootenays. Featuring members of Bath, Severed Arm and Big Ethel, their sound is heavy and bleak. Yet beneath the weight of crushing, mournful riffs is a hypnotic beauty and catharsis.

FRANKLIN
Franklin is the melodic, sludgy, tension-building riff-machine your nightmares have been waiting for. Hailing from the isolated north in Whitehorse YT, this two-piece metal-menace born in the pits of a world pandemic features Kirsty Wells (Whitehorse YT) and Evan Joel (Vancouver BC). While Kirsty screams hauntingly harsh vocals and slams the fuzz and distortion-fuelled bass, Evan backs with raspy support vocals and drums hit hard enough to make ears bleed. FRANKLIN reflects the under-sung desolation, mania, and limitlessness typical of the vast north, and is currently the only femme-fronted metal project in the Yukon.
