Besides near-deafening live shows and the usual 6-car pileup instrumental chaos – whenever I hear a grindcore band, I always think about how John Peel played a Napalm Death track three times in a row on his radio show because he was so shocked by the brevity and intensity – the Intestine are part of a movement of newer, younger grind acts (I’m also thinking of Bleed the Pigs and Thetan) who don’t shy away from social issues and progressive politics in their albums. It’s a clamor with a conscience.
Show is $4 and begins at 9 p.m.
