WXPN Welcomes…Cosmic Guilt Album Release Show w/LEON III

AGE RESTRICTION: All Ages Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM COSMIC GUILTPhiladelphia’s Cosmic Guilt is a psychedelic, folk supergroup of working musicians and leaders in their community. Their debut as a fully-realized band came after the pandemic lockdown, with a self-titled album arriving later in 2022. Sonically, Cosmic Guilt carries themes of existential dread through roaring folk rock and country elements, burying the bittersweet feelings in cathartic shared experience. Multi-layered guitar, pillowing vocal harmonies, and ripping pedal steel are all signatures of their music, produced to a technical but not exhaustive degree. In their recent history, Cosmic Guilt has provided direct support for The Walkmen, sold out Philadelphia venues such as Johnny Brenda’s and Brooklyn Bowl Philly, as well as shared the stage with Charley Crocket, Sharon Van Etten, and Father John Misty at 2022’s NON-COMMvention. The group has also made devoted fans of the DJs and audience of WXPN: their debut album was named one of the station’s favorites of 2022, and the Guilt played XPoNential Festival the same year. Following up Cosmic Guilt is Palace of Depression (2024), the Guilt’s sophomore LP produced at Hi5 Studios in Philadelphia and mastered by Charlie Stavish (Jenny Lewis). In Palace, Cosmic Guilt captures the mysterious allegory of the record’s namesake, a Depression-era fortress built of found objects and mud in New Jersey. Is it resilience and resourcefulness that keeps us pushing through hard times, or is it madness?https://linktr.ee/COSMICGUILTLEON IIITexas-based psychedelic songweavers Leon III (pronounced Leon the Third) are thrilled to announce their third full-length studio album along with the release of the album’s opening, two-song suite: “Mannequins” and “Dogwood Blooms”. The bands core duo of Andy Stepanian and Mason Brent have been friends since grade school, playing together in the acclaimed country-rock group Wrinkle Neck Mules since 1999. With Leon III’s self-titled 2018 debut, they retained their twangy roots, before 2021’s sophmore effort Antlers In Velvet drifted into a panoramic sound inspired by Pink Floyd and the Dead. Once again co-produced by Mark Nevers, the band’s third LP introduces a newfound sense of brevity, packing compact songs with sly pop hooks, while maintaining their boundless experimentation.https://open.spotify.com/artist/609q9A0vX8an6tAWbcCojf

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 8:00 PMMortuoushttps://mortuousdeath.bandcamp.com/Cemetery Filthhttps://cemeteryfilth.bandcamp.com/Bone WeaponPaleolithic Death and Doom manifested by drummer/vocalist Fred Grabosky of Philly fungal death bringers Blood Spore, with Isaac Ryan on guitar and Will Hersh on bass. Aiming to bring things back to a time where survival was the only thing that mattered and war was imminent with beast or man. Where tools and weapons were constructed by only natural elements, and danger was everywhere. …When it was ‘Thrive or Starve’, and kill or be killed. Pulling influence from the likes of death doom greats like Cianide, Derkéta, Rippikoulu, Autopsy, Coffins and Undergang… while mixing in some unique attributes likened to traditional old school death metal, sludge, and doom. Bone Weapon’s debut release came out on cassette through Transylvanian Recordings February 2023 and on CD through Morbid Chapel Records soon after. The release titled ‘Thrive or Starve’ consists of 3 unrelenting tracks of death and doom guaranteed to make you want to smash a skull on a rock or lick the blood from a fresh spear wound. Bone Weapon are currently working toward their second offering. 3 new tracks of filth-laden doomed death are to be recorded late spring of 2024, with a release date aimed toward early fall of that year. They are currently seeking opportunities with labels for the release of these tracks and opportunities for live events. You can contact them at [email protected] and follow them at @Boneweapondeath on Instagram.

deadyellow album release show

AGE RESTRICTION: Only Ages 21+ can purchase tickets for this show. NO REFUNDS/EXCHANGES for anyone underage who purchases or attempts to use these tickets. Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM Deadyellow Esoteric Black Metal from Philadelphia. A distinctive blend of beauty and brutality, the music is inspired by post-rock and discordant black metal, with incorporations of shoegaze and dark ambient noise. In reference to the aura of rot and decay, and reflecting the hues of earth, Deadyellow lends realization to the motif of darkness and melancholy. Lyrics explore themes of death, loss, philosophy, and self-identity, often drawing on personal experiences and emotions.https://linktr.ee/deadyellowGenital ShameGenital Shame, experimental black metal from Pittsburgh, PA is the one-person project of Erin Dawson. Touring for “Chronic Illness Wish,” her first full-length, she’ll be accompanied by a full-band, the Chicago post-rock three-piece, Stander. Veering from heavily distorted tremolo picked guitar and distant propulsive drums to gentle, bedroom pop ambience, Genital Shame is a queering of the sonic traditions and musical form of black metal. It is, in Dawson’s words, “an interrogation of how far you can get towards breaking those rules without it becoming something else.”https://genitalshame.bandcamp.com/Stander Stander is a trio restless in their pursuit to unearth new avenues for crafting heavy music. Their compositions unfurl beyond the more rigid confines of genre and subvert tropes with surprising shifts in phrasing, meter, and tone. Dramatic peaks give way to cavernous space before reigniting into serrated tendrils of feedback and chaotic surge. Guitarist Mike Boyd, bassist Derek Shlepr, and drummer Stephen Waller invoke and infuse their curiosity and an abundance of stylistic touchstones into idiosyncratic pieces tempered by keen, deliberate musicianship. Vulnerable is an unflinching reflection on emotional volatility and fragility, from existential dread to stagnance, incalculable grief to unbridled bliss.https://stander.bandcamp.com/musicLástima Lástima is a blackened screamo band from Philadelphia, PA that incorporates musical elements of latin music, classical, black metal and emo.
