A three-band rip at Locals: mind-bending Midwest psych, brand-new “mutated dog music,” and Minneapolis cosmopunk sludge-space rock.
Lineup
Apollo’s Death (Marshalltown, IA) — a 3-piece that bounces from psychedelic rock into folk and hard-rock-psych territory.
Dogs of Chernobyl (IA) — self-described “Iowa Mutated Dog Music” (new project; early shows have been billed alongside Apollo’s Death).
Slime Monsters from Outer Space (Minneapolis, MN) — cosmopunk / sludge space-rock: loud sci-fi worker anthems, heavy riffs, noisy hooks.

Live reviews

Hailing from the frozen ruins of Minneapolis, Slime Monsters from Outer Space are intergalactic class-war punks weaponizing sludge-drenched riffs against capitalist decay. Sounding like Neurosis jamming with The Stooges while Black Flag sets the studio on fire — with Hendrix’s ghost soloing through the flames. Our ‘Dead Planet Demos’ (grooveslimy.bandcamp.com) and ‘Battle Songs of the Revolution’ (streaming everywhere) fuse dystopian noise with anthems for the barricades. We’re the Marxist invaders your senile grandpa warned you about and we’re crashing the party. Join us or get disintegrated.
