The Brackish, Haul, Feral Cyclops

🦇 Bats Bats Bats 🦇 and 🌕 The Moon 🌕 presents a night of blistering psych, experimental, euphoric doom and fresh hot industrial sludge. Just in time for Xmas too!

THE BRACKISH: Thrillingly unique instrumental post-punk psych band with alumni of This is the Kit, Zun Zun Egui. Jazzy, post-rock inflected, instrumental psych quartet with an abundance of angular jagged riffs and explosive dynamic shifts. Like floating on top of an ocean that alternates between ominously still and Kraken-infested. FFO: Tortoise, and the really gnarly parts of King Crimson.

HAUL: It’s not Doom Metal but Dawn Metal. Still punishing, but euphoric and revelatory rather than oppressive. Like reaching the summit of a mountain with bloody hands and burning lungs and seeing the sun rise. Hope and beauty in defiance of a brutal uncaring immensity. FFO: Flood / Pink-era Boris, Sunn O))) if they came from the actual Sun to deliver salvation through sublime cleansing fire.

FERAL CYCLOPS: Acidic cyber sludge served on a bed of the most mangled industrial beats and obscure b-movie samples imaginable. FFO: Electric Wizard, Ministry, Sleep, That bit where they play the riff again but slower and you make a little involuntary grunt under your breath.
