Sunday, July 1st - 108 @ The Knitting Factory in NYC (6:30pm)
After seeing a free Man Man show, what could possibly be better than witnessing one of the most influential and important bands in hardcore and heavy music. 108 has meant a lot of things to a lot of people over the past 14 years, but the initial announcement of the band’s arrival on the punk scene in the fall of 1992 remains the most apt description of its guiding spirit. In the 4 years following its formation, 108 constantly toured the US and Europe, releasing 3 extremely popular studio LP's, an EP, a live LP, and various songs on different compilations. When the guitar player decided to intensify his studies in Hinduism in 1996, 108 disbanded. After reuniting in 2005 for one-off special appearances, the band emerges once again to release their heaviest album to date, out tomorrow courtesy of Deathwish Records, entitled "A New Beat From A Dead Heart." Bear witness to the sick mosh and one of the craziest live shows you'll ever be a part of.
