MEGA-SCOPES

About:

Some say they are from the future. Some say they are from another
dimension. Some say they are a mind control plot perpetrated by the
Illuminati. Most believe they were created in Area 51 by a secret
government program in collaboration with entities from another world.

The otherworldly dance music trio are known simply by the MEGA-
SCOPES.

The story begins in 1977 when the research group SETI received an
encoded radio message from a distant galaxy. It took the worlds best
mathematicians a decade to decipher the message using the fastest
supercomputers of the era. When the mystery was finally unlocked it
was discovered to be genetic information encoded in a hyper-advanced
multi-dimensional encryption technique known subsequently as 4D
holographic encoding. Following lengthy negotiations between rival
factions of the secret world government it was decided that the genetic
information was to be used to create super soldiers by mixing the
extraterrestrial DNA with DNA from earth animals. After many years of
research and several failed attempts using large predatory animals such
as lions, bears and great white sharks ultimately it was decided that the
humble owl was the ideal animal to create an extraterrestrial hybrid
because of it’s deadly stealth, night vision and excellent hearing. There
was but one problem, the MEGA-SCOPES refused to be weaponized.
Not only did they refuse to kill but they seemed to be singularly
fascinated by earth’s music.

The MEGA-SCOPES sound is created by fusing the electronic rhythms
of dance music, hip hop and trance with the organic warmth of acoustic
instruments creating an ethereal blend that is both captivating and
irresistible. Their music takes listeners on an interstellar journey
through pulsating basslines, shimmering synths, and infectious
grooves. The MEGA-SCOPES energetic and fun sound has been
compared to contemporary bands such as The Floozies, Glitch Mob,
Beats Antique and Big Gigantic.

Following the ratification of the H.A.F.T.A. treaty (Hyper-dimensional
Association for Fractal Telemetry and Astral projections) between the secret world government and it’s intergalactic trade partners the MEGA-SCOPES gained their freedom in exchange for the schematics for a perpetual motion machine. Now free to explore human culture the
MEGA-SCOPES travel the world and interact with human earthlings in
clubs and music festivals across the globe. While it’s difficult to explain the MEGA-SCOPES music using the constructs of human language those lucky enough to experience it have been quoted as saying:

“It’s like a telepathic dance party in between my ears only louder and
quieter at the same time” - @MusicL0vr627

“It feels like my frontal lobe is fighting with my temporal lobe but in a
sexy way” - NASA Neurophysicist

“The MEGA-SCOPES make me hot and cold at the same time and I feel
like I’m floating underground” -Festie Girl

“I couldn’t stop dancing but it’s not like I wanted to anyway” -Name
redacted for national security reasons 

“When I heard the MEGA-SCOPES for the first time I instantly understood the inner workings of the universe, but then I totally forgot” -@Lysergicdude25

“It’s like you hear it and don’t hear it at the same time” -NASA Astronaut

Brujeria Bio:

Decades before Breaking Bad, Narcos, or Mayans M.C., BRUJERIA put the world of cartels and ritualistic murder on wax with a brutal power equivalent to when Compton arrived in pop culture via NWA.

BRUJERIA emerged, shrouded in mystery and infamy, in 1989. They forcefully introduced phrases like Matando Güeros, La Migra, Marijuana y Brujerizmo into the lexicon of extreme subcultures from hardcore punk to death metal. The brutal death grind band from Mexico came to represent the notoriously violent world of illegal drug trafficking, vicious retaliation, and a sinister syncretism between Afro-Caribbean sorcery like Palo Mayombe and Santeria with outright demonic possession.

They brandish rifles and machetes. Most importantly, they’re armed with an arsenal of brutal riffs. Rumors abound that frontman Juan Brujo ingeniously surrounded himself over the years with members of legendary bands like NAPALM DEATH, CARCASS,  and AT THE GATES and performers from beloved TV shows like Orange Is The New Black and Jackass. But nobody knows for certain. That’s because the men and women of BRUJERIA conceal themselves with bandanas, serapes, and balaclavas.

About:

Modern English, formed in Colchester, Essex, in 1977, maintains its original lineup of Robbie Grey, Gary McDowell, Mick Conroy, and Stephen Walker. Revered as post-punk pioneers, their resurgence is fueled by new generations discovering their music, leading to sold-out tours and a major 2023 Cruel World Festival appearance. Their latest album, 1 2 3 4, produced by Mario McNulty and mixed at Abbey Road, retains their post-punk essence with energetic, raw recordings made during the COVID-19 lockdown. Thematically, it reflects Grey’s introspections on personal and political matters, echoing the band’s legacy from their influential debut, Mesh & Lace, to their iconic hit “I Melt With You.”

Krooked Kings Bio

In a world where authenticity is often sacrificed, Krooked Kings stand as a beacon of unabashed vulnerability and raw emotion. Their indie rock sound is a candid reflection of their influences, drawing from the ornate and biting guitar arrangements of The Strokes, the introspective depth of Bon Iver, and the easygoing charm of Peach Pit. But while these inspirations shape their musical foundation, it's the band's own narrative that sets them apart.

At the heart of Krooked Kings’ music is a brutally honest portrayal of the twenty-something experience in America—capturing the restlessness, dreams, and disillusionments of a generation navigating the complexities of modern life. Their lyrics resonate with the tumultuous yet exhilarating journey of coming of age, making each song a poignant and relatable exploration of life's ups and downs.

Krooked Kings burst onto the scene with a fervor that quickly captivated audiences across Europe and North America, culminating in a debut tour that left an indelible mark on their fans. Their ability to connect on a profound level is evident not just in their packed shows but also in their impressive digital footprint. With over 70 million streams on their albums, their music has reverberated across the globe, cementing their status as a rising force in indie rock.

Their presence isn’t just isolated to the realm of underground fans and loyal listeners, having gained critical acclaim and placements on some of Spotify’s most sought after playlists in the genre including “Today’s Indie Rock”, “Feel Good Indie Rock”, “Marrow”, and many more.

With their fearless approach to songwriting and an ever-expanding fanbase, they’re poised to redefine the boundaries of indie rock and make their mark on the world stage.

WINGTIPS

with special guest Ronnie Stone

at Swan Dive

Las Vegas, NV

Fri, Nov 15

Doors 7pm

21+

Artist Bio:

WINGTIPS are a Midwest-based electro pop duo consisting of Vincent Segretario and Hannah Avalon. The band’s sonics are best described as an androgynous sound of transition. Interpolating darkly shimmering layers of angular guitar and pulsating darkwave beats, WINGTIPS sharpen their anthemic rush with an increasing penchant for melody and an atmosphere equally informed by post-punk as sweeping electronica.

Their debut full-length, EXPOSURE THERAPY released in 2019, is a contextualization of new romantic for post-millennial end times, and a refreshing mix of synthpop and darkwave with hooks so compelling they are cinematic in scope. In September 2021, WINGTIPS released their sophomore LP, CUTTING ROOM FLOOR. The record is a momentous shift from a previous stylistically darkwave approach into a realm of maximalist dark pop, and even techno body music, while also maintaining many of the sonic textures from whence the band came.

In 2024, WINGTIPS will release their third full-length record, ON TRIAL. Featuring collaborations with the likes of TIM CAPPELLO (The Lost Boys, Tina Turner Band), and the cutting edge New York-based RONNIE STONE, the album is yet another evolutionary shift for the band into an even more advanced musical identity. Tonally, the dichotomy between tracks marks the furthered maturity of WINGTIPS’ approach to their unique blend of dark dance music, and texturally lush dream pop. The album also marks the first release where the entirety of recording, mixing, and post-production was completed by the band themselves, maintaining a core ethos that DIY is key to precisely communicating artistic language.

King Buffalo

with special guest Rickshaw Billie's Burger Patrol

Las Vegas, NV

Weds, Dec 11

Doors 7pm

Bio:

King Buffalo is the trio of vocalist/guitarist Sean McVay, bassist Dan Reynolds, and drummer Scott Donaldson. Since forming in 2013, the self-proclaimed "heavy psych" band has made its name via 4 Full-lengths, 4EPs, and tours with Clutch, Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats, All Them Witches, The Sword, and Elder.

King Buffalo will issue their fifth full-length, Regenerator, on Sept. 2, 2022, as a self-release in North America and through Stickman Records in Europe. Preorders will be available on June 10th via http://kingbuffalo.bigcartel.com.

Written and recorded by the band with mixing and engineering by Sean McVay and mastering by Bernie Matthews, the seven-song outing is the third in King Buffalo’s stated ‘pandemic trilogy,’ following Two of 2021’s Best Albums in The Burden of Restlessness and Acheron.

Both of those albums – like 2018’s Longing to Be the Mountain, 2016’s debut, Orion, and the various EPs and other offerings they’ve made over the last eight years – made bold declarations about who King Buffalo are as a band, and Regenerator is no different. As McVay, Reynolds and Donaldson continue to explore the outer reaches of modern psychedelic songcraft, melding progressive rhythms, drifting atmospheres and accompanying surges of electricity, the new collection only further establishes them as one of the brightest lights shining in underground rock today.

As the third of three, Regenerator seems inherently to tie together the two LPs most immediately before it, and as King Buffalo unfold the leadoff title-track across nine and half minutes, it becomes clear just how truly they have marked out their own sonic presence. The later melodic highlight “Mammoth” – with McVay’s most confident vocal yet – shimmers with hope that somehow doesn’t come across as desperate, and as “Hours” engages classic space rock and the closing “Firmament” summarizes the first, second and third series installments, the final chapter of this trilogy becomes the essential cornerstone of King Buffalo’s work to-date.

The band returned to live activity late last year, touring alongside Clutch and more recently a full North American spring tour with Uncle Acid and the Deadbeats. By the time Regenerator arrives, they will have completed a UK and European headlining tour with festival appearances in Germany, the Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, Portugal, Belgium and Denmark.
