Russian Circles put on a killer performance when they played the Rock & Roll Hotel back in February and you can bet they’ll do the same this time too. While they’re not the most brutal of bands I’ve always had a soft spot for instrumental bands and Russian Circles is one of the best. Also on the bill is Mutoid Man, a stoner band featuring Ben Koller of Converge and Steve Brodsky of Cave In. Now check out these killer tunes by the bands playing and let me know what you favorite instrumental band is!

Russian Circles – Geneva

Russian Circles – Deficit

Mutoid Man – Gnarcissist

Russian Circles gave us the moody album Memorial in late October and this will be their first area appearance since its release. That’s not all to look forward to at this show though, there’s also going to be support from KEN mode, a sick Canadian hardcore/noise band. The opening act is a personal favorite of mine, Richmond’s Inter Arma. These guys released an incredible album on Relapse in 2013, titled Sky Burial, and their live shows are even better. Get there early to see these guys, you’ll be glad you did! Now give a listen to some of my favorite songs by all three bands below and leave a comment telling me your favorite instrumental band!

Russian Circles – Geneva

Russian Circles – Burial

KEN mode – Extending Common Courtesy Throughout The Evening
