Tuesday 11/11 – Eyehategod @ The Black Sheep

New Orleans sludge legends Eyehategod are gracing Colorado Springs with their presence this Tuesday. They got together in the late 80s, pioneering the sludge genre and have been playing together on and off ever since, although the lineup has shifted over the years due to personal tragedy and addiction. These guys play with more conviction than many bands out there and have also been through more than most people. They will be joined by Today is the Day, an aggressive rock ‘n’ roll band from Austin and Tree of Woe, a Denver band featuring Jeff Montoya of Catheter, as well as Blighter from Colorado Springs. The show starts at 7:00 PM and is $12 in advance, $14 the day of.

Wednesday 11/12 – Intronaut @ The Marquis

Wednesday 11/12 – All Them Witches @ Lost Lake Lounge

You have your pick on Wednesday; if prog’s not your thing at all, go check out All Them Witches at Lost Lake Lounge. These guys play straight up rockin’ doom with a hint of the supernatural and sad. Their music is extremely compelling and catchy, and they seem like they would put on an awesome live show. The show will be opened by The Well and Abrams. Cost is $7 in advance, $10 the day of.  Doors open at 8:00 PM.
