Metal show at Oliver Brewing in Baltimore

Black Lung at Oliver Brewing

This Friday, March 16th of 2018, the Oliver Brewing Company in Baltimore is hosting their first “real” metal show when Black Lung, Sierra and Caustic Casanova perform there. Oliver has had some bands play there before but they’ve usually been matinee shows tied in to beer releases. This will be their first night time metal show. The show was put together with help from the guys that run the Maryland Doom Fest so as you’d expect the bands are along the lines of doom and stoner. Oliver is a good place for this because the head brewer at Oliver is quite the metal head. Oliver makes a line of special release IPAs that are tie ins with various stoner and doom bands that he loves. They also make an officially licensed beer for The Sword and will be releasing a beer for Integrity at the Decibel Metal & Beer Fest later this month in Philadelphia. There have been some awesome shows coming to Atlas Brew Works in Washington DC lately and I’m hoping that Oliver can become something similar in Baltimore. Time will tell but hopefully a lot of people come out and support this first gig to show that this kind of thing can work in Baltimore too! You can get more info in the show’s Facebook event page here. Now a little about the bands…

Black Lung is a local Baltimore based band and they play a psychedelic style of rock that is drenched in distortion.

Sierra is a band from Kitchener in Ontario, Canada (a little west of Toronto). They play some moody stoner rock/metal and this is a rare chance to catch them down in our area.
