Goatsnake is from Los Angeles and features members of bands like The Obsessed and Sunn O))). Goatsnake have made a name for themselves with their blend of southern rock and doom metal and this summer they released their first album in 15 years, Black Age Blues, and it rips! They have a high energy live show but they rarely make it to the East Coast to play live so you don’t want to miss this rare chance to see them right here in Washington, DC, one of just three of their East Coast dates. Also on the bill is YDi (pronounced Why Die), a reformed old school hardcore band that started in Philadelphia in the 80s. The opener is Big ‡ Brave from Montreal, Canada, and they play a strange experimental style of metal. Now check out these videos of the bands playing the show and let me know what your favorite doom, sludge or stoner metal band is in the comments!
Goatsnake – Elevated Man
YDi – Black Dust
Big ‡ Brave – On The By – And – By And Thereon

Love me some Keenan era COC, Sleep, Windhand, and the almighty Sabbath. Never seen Goatsnake, excited tho!
Favorite Doom band is by far Conan. I’ve been following them since Monnos came out and they got me in to the doom/stoner genre. Hoping they come back to the states soon and y’all do a giveaway for them then 😁
I’ll go Conan and Electric Wizard for doom, Eyehategod for sludge.

I listened to the Goya / Wounded Giant split on STB Records 3 times in a row the other day. So I would say them.
