Dream Affair
Dream Affair is a post-punk band from Brooklyn, NY. Last year, they released their debut album "Endless Days" on Avant! Records creating a cold and driven sound by combining guitars, drum machine, and synthesizer. Now incorporating more industrial influences, such as Death In June and Killing Joke, their new material will soon be marked by a cassette release later this summer on Detroit noise label Nostilevo. Reverb laden drums pounding against contorted guitars and howling synths march forward.

Anåsazi
Deranged and violent Post-PUNK from New York City //
A tribal disaster the ancestors would hate...
Anasazi, who've suddenly surfaced over the past 2 years,
play hateful hymns for happy people.
Crucially conflicted, controversially cannibalistic:
Ancient Pueblan-Wave at its best.
This show will be Anasazi's record release for their 7" of I Saw The Witch Cry on Sacred Bones

Religious To Damn
Religious to Damn, is that rarest of jewels - sophisticated gypsy rock
and roll that’s tender and aggressive, elegant and raw all in the same
melodic burst. From the post-punk dancefloor to those psychedelic
distant, dreamy places where dim fires illuminate the nighttime, the
universe Atash creates is at times expansive, at times intimate, and
always compelling. It’s not really about religion so much as a
disposition. The span between the flames and the transcendence.

Nao Katafuchi
Nao Katafuchi is a Japanese musician in New York City who plays
electronic music with a guitar & a synth box. In the early 2000's he
started an experimental electronic music project "Superfortress" at
his small apartment in Lower East Side. After playing gigs with a
number of guest musicians, the project evolved to a rock band, and
released 2 self released CDs. In 2010 Nao went back to his original
roots of synthesizer oriented music, using pre 1985 Japanese made
guitar pedals & a synth box runs with a floppy disk, and is curently
creating his own world of cold romantic wave.
