First Annual San Francisco Bay Area Harsh Noise
Festival

HARSH TIMES call for harsh music! The Edinburgh Castle
Pub presents the sonic antidote for the future with
the San Francisco Bay Area Harsh Noise Festival. Of
course, noise is always a few steps ahead: at its
best, it cuts to the chase of musical enjoyment,
serving simultaneously as aesthetic purification and
meta-music. The festival, curated by Bob Sato and Tim
Oliveira of the harshnoise label, promises such
sublime listening from the likes of: THE HATERS,
celebrating 25 years of sonic entropy; Emil Beaulieau,
America's Greatest Living Noise Artist; SICKNESS,
purveyor of harsh electronic purity; Control, brutally
harsh power electronics; R.H.Y. Yau,
Noise/Voice/Action by San Francisco's best kept
secret; The Cherry Point, bloody harsh electronics
unit trio: Phil Blankenship, John Wiese, and Gerritt.
Also performing are XOME, Pedestrian Deposit , Clew of
Theseus, Ohka, Velocity Stack, UFO AS BACTERIA,
Oscillating Innards, and Stimbox.

Shows start at 8 PM
Admission $6 each night. $10 for both nights.
Show is 21+
