Portions For Foxes Presents: Pelican, High on Fire, Priestbird, Wednesday 12th December @ Independent, Sunderland

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Two of the most epic metal giants, High on Fire (Relapse Records) and Pelican (Hydrahead Records) are out on tour in December with the almighty Priestbird and we're lucky enough to have a date of the tour booked at Sunderland’s Independent.

Wednesday, 12th of December is going to be a night of extreme sounds. If you're into Metal, Post Rock and Progressive music you'll come away from this one grinning with, though indistinguishable from a distance, the skin melted off your face. (guaranteed).

It’s a mere £10 of the door-a bargain for the line up-get your tickets fast!

Reviews:

“[T]he music filled the room with wooly sustain and their encompassing circles of noise seemed to draw the audience together. When I looked up, everyone next to me also had their eyes shut, lost in a connected world.”

-Pitchfork Media


“Northern California's High on Fire…. show there's still hope for a metal band to not only operate according to its own whims, but also produce organic and monstrous music, devoid of bullshit. Working at the fringes of stoner/doom metal, High on Fire-- guitarist/vocalist Matt Pike, bassist George Rice, and drummer Des Kensel-- are as powerful and gargantuan a threesome as metal has produced since the mid 90s.”
