"Blowout declare a knucklehead-free zone for this hardcore history lesson from the 90s radical politics maelstrom. Trump’s least favourite metalcore agitators, Racetraitor hit like nothing before or since – confronting white privilege head-on with chaotic, churning waves of riffs and yells, ripped from the depths of human suffering. Uncompromising, extreme, essential FFO: Converge, Deadguy, Integrity."

Blowout Presents
- Racetraitor -
We bring the highly influential Chicago metallic hardcore group Racetraitor to Bristol next July,
Their 1998 release 'Burn the Idol of the White Messiah' speaks for itself, an album that is immediate in its message and chaotic in its sound,
Needless to say we're beyond excited to hear these songs live, as well as newer material since their reunion in 2016.
Tickets will fly for this, get on it!
