Negative Approach are coming to the Drunken Unicorn on Friday, June 8th

Triple D's presents:

Negative Approach

here at The Drunken Unicorn on Friday, June 8th, 2012.



Negative Approach is an American hardcore punk band, formed in Detroit, Michigan in 1981. The band is considered among the pioneers of hardcore punk, particularly in the Midwest region.[1] Like most hardcore bands, Negative Approach was little known in its day outside of its hometown. It is now idolized in the Detroit rock underground and the punk subculture, considered to be one of the elite bands of the "old school" era, and continues to be influential.[2] Negative Approach initially broke up in 1984 with singer John Brannon moving onto Laughing Hyenas, and later Easy Action, but the band has reformed as of 2006 and continues to tour sporadically.

GG King are performing before Negative Approach.



When the Carbonas died, Atlanta wept. Mothers and children, left orphaned by the deceased, wandered the streets with tears streaming mottled faces. Strong and silent men struggled to maintain composure, and they retreated to basement workbenches, biting lips, cracking knuckles, running hands through thinning hair, sullenly wondering: "Why?" Skies darkened. A palpable feeling of devastating loss plagued the city. Nay, the world.

Thankfully, ex-frontman Greg "GG" King wasted little time in yanking up his knickers and pursuing new noise. He wrote a series of tunes not unlike those he contributed to the Carbonas – that winning mix of hyperstrummed '70s Europunk and brawny stateside r'n'r pummel intact – and amassed a crew of friends and former bandmates to help him flesh out the din. He released a handful of solid teaser singles, played a number of good shows. He reasserted himself as one of Atlanta's greatest exports.

Bukkake Boys will be starting the show.



"Over the years since their last EP for Sorry State, Bukkake Boys have expanded to a five-piece and grown increasingly heavy, intense, and pummeling, leaving behind their scraggly, noisy hardcore for a sound that takes the best parts of huge-sounding Japanese HC like Framtid and Kriegshög and combines it with the simplicity and urgency of classic USHC. If you like your hardcore to fit neatly in a subgenre, you might not get it. If you like your hardcore delivered with maximum possible venom and bile then The Bukkake Boys are for you!"
