Die Right, Object Unto Earth, Trauma Club – 21+

Die Right – Sweat, swagger, and six-string salvation. These Portland punks got the raw nerve and the mean hooks to shake your bones loose. No frills, no filler—just loud, dirty, and dangerous rock & roll the way it’s meant to be. Get in, get wild, and let it hit you like a fist full of lightning. Object Unto Earth Beginning as the pandemic-era solo project of songwriter/producer Jonathan Zajdman, Object Unto Earth is an atmospheric prog-rock band based in Portland, Oregon. Their debut album – The Grim Village – released on January 17th and is streaming everywhere. Trauma Club is an Emo/ New Wave band from Portland, OR that formed in 2023. A lot of influences taken from Brand New, Tiger’s Jaw, American Football, Depeche Mode, The Cure, New Order etc.

SURF TRASH, THE HAPPY RETURN – 21+

Fresh off a sold out Australia + New Zealand tour, and the release of their second EP ‘Under The Radar’ in January, Surf Trash are keeping the momentum going with the release of their newest single Spice It Up & Aus regional tour to go with it. Spice It Up maintains Surf Trash’s signature blend of gritty riffs and addictive high energy hooks – while demonstrating that with each new release, the group are challenging their sound that is varied and unique to their own. With a new 4th member but a lifelong brother of the group ‘Patrick Russell’ now a part of the ST operation as lead guitarist. The NSW based quartet are more powerful than ever and are keen to share what they’re been working on. Spice It Up is a swirling miasma of driving punk with a catchiness that belies its gloomy tone. Raw, Roomy and hard-hitting, the outfit have focused on capturing their raw live sound that they a renowned for on the road. With a tip of the hat to the 90s Aus rock scene they grew up on, idolising greats such as The Celebrate Rifles and Radio Birdman. Scott’s rather unusual lyrics on the track ‘Systematic rompa-syompa’ and ‘release the chompers’ he says are about “not acting to a system or a fixed plan and living your life in freedom opposed to being controlled within the modern worlds box.” With this being the first taste of Surf Trash’s forthcoming album, the hard-hitting track sets the standard for what’s to come.

HOLOCENE’S 22ND ANNIVERSARY NIGHT 1- Quadrophonic sound featuring: Byron Westbrook Marcus Fischer Sanae Yamada – 21+

Join us as we celebrate 22 years of Holocene! ADVANCE TIX FREE WITH RSVP $10 AT THE DOOR First emerging from within New York’s experimental music scene over the last decade and a half and now based in Los Angeles, Byron Westbrook has woven intricate tapestries of sonority that bridge the worlds of sound art, installation, avant-garde electronic music and synthesis. Westbrook creates sculptural and immersive compositions, with highly acclaimed releases on imprints like Shelter Press, Important Records, Root Strata, Hands In The Dark, Umor Rex, and Ash International, presentations at the Walker Art Center, ICA London, MOCA Los Angeles, MoMA PS1, MaerzMusik, Akousma and Rewire Festivals, as well as residencies with Headlands Center, Civitella Ranieri Foundation, ISSUE Project Room, EMS Stockholm. For this evening at Holocene, Westbrook presents his work Translucents (Shelter Press, 2024), in an expanded, multi-channel audio configuration. Inspired by viewing the color panels of abstract painter Blinky Palermo, Translucents explores the concept of “audio after-image”. The piece presents a series of immersive ‘audio images’, where each consecutive scene is influenced by the residue of the previous one, in a perceptual play with memory, presence, and time. “Byron Westbrook’s Shelter Press debut is his most mesmerizing album to date – a set of electroacoustic pieces that advances the rough blueprints laid out by legends like Maryanne Amacher, Bernard Parmegiani and Luc Ferrari.. if you’re at all interested in electroacoustic music, ‘Translucents’ is just about as good as it gets.” (-Boomkat) Marcus Fischer is an interdisciplinary artist and musician based in Portland, Oregon. A first-generation American artist who creates, collects, and transforms sound into immersive, layered compositions that accompany performances and exhibitions. Site-specific assemblages of exposed speakers, tape loops, and objects are characteristic of his installations, paired with melodies of restraint and tension. He has released numerous recordings—both solo and collaborative —on 12k, a label that has decisively defined and developed its own concept of minimalism in the realms of experimental and ambient music. Fischer contributed two sound works and two performances to the 2019 Whitney Biennial and has been selected for residencies at the Robert Rauschenberg Foundation, Rauschenberg Residency, the Bemis Center for Contemporary Art and MacDowell. In 2024 he was awarded The Ford Family Foundation’s Hallie Ford Fellowship in the Visual Arts as well as the International Music & Composition Fellowship from the Montalvo Arts Center’s Sally and Don Lucas Artists Program.
