+ More TBA

Chicago dark synth “pop” band EaVil has been added to the line-up for this show.

Final line-up now expanded and confirmed…

Additional info added above regarding admission. Like AV-aerie, Hotti Biscotti is also under the microscope with City of Chicago licensing bullshit. I think that it is obvious that this is not some sort of pass-the-hat show, so we tried to come up with a decent way to ensure that the touring people do not get fucked over, money-wise. I am doing a rush order of advance copies of the amazing new Sleep Museum CD - which includes a 30+ minute M.B./(early) Lustmord style synth workout - to make the door thing work out in a more palatable way.

Thanks!
Mark

New York minimal-wave revivalist Martial Canterel often seems to want to make music that calls for an all-black wardrobe, but his cruel, punishing analog-synth stabs, splutters, and gyrations are actually as stark and white as Nordic pack ice. His dried-rose melodies hang in polygon windows that open onto a tundra thick with fog, and from beyond them comes his hollowed-out but romantic singing, like the voice of a lonely god who’s wandering aimlessly in the cold and pondering the melancholy fate of his creation. Canterel is on tour with DJ Pieter Schoolwerth, who’s helped bring plenty of spooky, alluringly angular music into the world as proprietor of Wierd Records. —Liz Armstrong

What a fun night!
