KALX invites you to kick off October with Guerilla Toss and Still Depths at The Chapel in San Francisco. Additional event information can be found at The Chapel’s website here.
When NYC-based experimental dance punks Guerilla Toss, active since time immemorial aka 2011, were in Vermont recording their new full-length album You’re Weird Now, frontwoman Kassie Carlson would prepare what she called ‘punk lunch’: a communal meal made by raiding the studio fridge for whatever was left and assembling a sandwich from the most random ingredients imaginable.
You’re Weird Now powers this message. Guerilla Toss’ fifth album and second for Sub Pop is a hugely creative and joyful statement about the joy of creativity. With You’re Weird Now Guerilla Toss reclaim the word “weird” for everyone brave enough to let their freak flag fly and stay true to their artistic vision no matter what—a way riskier act than it’s ever given credit for, and one that requires a certain amount of serene self-confidence that it takes time and effort to cultivate and sustain.
Still Depths is a Vancouver-based music project formed in Calgary in 2019. Their sound swerves from hardcore chaos and heavy industrial thrashing to frenetic noise improvisation and groove-driven post-punk. A Still Depths performance is unpredictable, fusing noise-driven guitars, pounding electronic rhythms, frantic drumming, angular vocals, and live sampling.
The Chapel is located at 777 Valencia, San Francisco, CA 94110.
All ages & wheelchair accessible.
Doors: 7:00pm, Show: 8:00pm
