Hull is performing at the Drunken Unicorn on Wednesday, October 26th

Chunklet presents:

Hull at the Drunken Unicorn on Wednesday, October 26th, 2011.



HULL materializes as a massive entity storming stages and immersing their audiences in a blanket of grandiose down-tuned compositions. A shifting fault line of decibel heavy harmony, this collective force converges in a collision of thrash, doom, classic rock, and formal orchestral works. HULL commands their listeners through each riff with incredible precision, as a seafarer guides vessels through ominous waters. Submerged in cosmic soundscapes, HULL challenges the mind with flowing, off-time fugues and powerful, dynamic movements. Brace yourself for an onslaught of eruptive force as a new world of music is formed in the deafening clap of thunder that is HULL.

The Fucking Wrath are performing second.



The Fucking Wrath was conceived in Montalvo, California by three long-time friends who worked in the same record store and lived on the same street. While the members had each been playing in dedicated bands for more than ten years, they initially formed T.F.W. as a result of jamming for fun after work. Since their first gig in November of 2005, they have gone on to play a continual string of shows that hasen't stopped yet. The band recorded their first album, "Season Of Evil", during the week of 6/06/06. In true DIY fashion the band payed for the recording themselves. After numerous shows playing with a ride range of bands from Tragedy to Blue Cheer & High On Fire to the Adolescents their mix of punk/stoner metal/rock n roll caught the attention of Goodfellow & Challenge The Throne Records who released "Seasons..." on CD & LP respectivly in August of 2007. With rave reviews from print and online zines, the group embarked on two nation-wide tours and several west coast ventures. The Fucking Wrath Recently signed with the legendary Tee Pee Records and realeased their debut E.P. "Terra Fire" in Oct of 2010 and set out on a west coast tour with Label mates Ancestors. They are now writing for their Next fulll length LP titles "Valley of the Serpent Soul" shcedualed to come out Sept/Oct of 2011. The Fucking Wrath now averages close to 100 shows per year with no sign of slowing down. They have a track included on the Nardcore Compilation: 30 Years Later LP on Burning Tree Records. In 2009, Brent Woodward joined the group, adding a second guitar to the mix. Fueled by significant doses of THC, their songs are simultaneously heavy and fast, while cleverly infused with slower, droned-down riffs and sudden timing changes. The band's sound can be described as an amalgamation of groups such as Discharge, Black Flag, The Melvins and Kill 'em All-era Metallica. The Fucking Wrath consists of Craig Kasamis: guitar/guttural onslaught, Nick Minasian: bass/visceral ravaging, Brent Woodward: guitar/looking good, and John Crerar: really heavy drums.

Lazer/Wulf are starting the show.



"Lazer/Wulf if a band that seems to continually impress, and it was easily one of the most talked about bands of Saturday night's festival line-up. With a sound slightly outside the familiar Athens indie rock circle and shin-deep into the realm of metal, this trio (now based mostly in Atlanta) has been wowing audiences off and on since their formation in 2005, and Saturday night's performance was no different. To say they were on point is an understatement—the band functioned as one cohesive entity, blasting through complex riffs and melting the faces off anyone within earshot.

Caledonia has seen its share of packed-out shows, and Friday night's drawing may have nearly broken fire code with audience members in lines 30 deep and some people barely inside the door. It was as if the high-speed funk-rock thrash had literally enraptured the entire audience and pulled each individual forward on an invisible string. With each song, the intensity grew and even the most jaded and pretentious of audience members could not help but drop their jaws, if only momentarily.

The show ended abruptly —L/W played their last note and instantly began packing up as the house lights turned on and people, waking from their trance, began to filter outside. The calm demeanor of the club after the set was one of both astonishment and complete satisfaction. The brief silence following the set was an appropriate response to the performance. When the universe aligns and a band pulls off that kind of flawless and crisp congruity, there are really no words." - Carrie Dagenhard / Flagpole
