Doors open at 8PM, show starts at 9PM. This 21+ event features the Los Angeles-based band Agriculture, channeling ecstatic black metal into something spiritual, grounded, and present. Their music fuses the intensity of black metal with Zen Buddhist thought, queer history, and devotional songwriting, creating a sound that resists algorithmic flattening and demands full attention.
Why We Like It
- Agriculture's music is rooted in community and persistence, with songs written, dismantled, and rebuilt together.
- Their new full-length album, 'The Spiritual Sound,' builds on the radiant extremity of their previous releases and pushes further.
- This is not just a vibe - it's a demand for confrontation and catharsis.
Who Should Attend
This event will appeal to fans of black metal, spiritual and devotional music, and those interested in the intersection of music, community, and social commentary.
