American Hardcore Tribute Series II

American Hardcore Tribute Series II is bringing you some of the best metal bands this town has to offer and two super exclusive 7" albums that will be available for one night only. Small's and Black Iris Booking present Hellmouth, Golden Torso, Old Gods and Child Bite all together for one night under one roof. This is by far the most metal show of the year and is a guaranteed good night. To top it off, all of these amazing bands will be playing some of your favorites from Dead Kennedys and Misfits! Here's some background on the bands playing Thursday night.

Hellmouth is here to bring back a time when music actually meant something. They assert that music has lost all integrity and become soft. They are here to bring back the fear, anger, and honesty that they feel once existed. They currently have three albums, “Destroy Everything. Worship Nothing”, “The Demo 08” and "Gravestone Skylines". They were released in limited quantities and once sold out will likely not be repressed, according to the band.

Golden Torso is a band born out of other bands, known for being topless and getting a crowd moving. They describe themselves as three chubby dudes and one little man. They rock harder than most bands around, even if one of the guys is on the smaller side.

Old Gods is the brainchild of Jeff Tuttle, former guitar player for Dillinger Escape Plan. He joined forces with former Heads Will Roll teammate, Derek Swanson, and friends Randall K. and Tony W. to create this new entity and some new music. They just released their first record on Forge Again Records, appropriately titled "Old Gods" and it can be found on their bandcamp.

Child Bite is known for great music, an amazing website, and thanks to artist Shawn Knight, some of the best looking merchandise I have ever seen. Their latest release is called "Monomania" and is available at http://childbite.bandcamp.com/.

The best part of this whole event is that the first 250 people who enter the door will receive a copy of the two previously mentioned 7" albums, one of which is Dead Kennedys covers and the other is Misfits covers.


The American Hardcore Tribute Series II is October 25 at Small's in Hamtramck. It is $12 dollars at the door and pre-sale tickets are available at www.smallsbardetroit.com. Doors are at 8 p.m. and all ages are welcome! This is a don’t miss event!
