Opus Kink / Butch Kassidy / Heavy Lungs + More at The Full Moon & Attic Bar
Headfirst Editor's Pick

"Sell out warning! Heavy music devotees, missing this Down Stokes bill would be a minor personal catastrophe. Opus Kink’s goth-mariachi mosh pits are quickly building them a reputation as one of the underground’s best live acts; Butch Kassidy conjure primal forms of catharsis through winding, immersive post-rock; and Heavy Lungs bring their brutalising post-punk menace."
