Have you ever roller-skated to heavy, psychedelic metal music improvised by musicians tripping on the sacred TeonĂĄnactl mushroom? No? Well, then, there’s a firstâand let’s hope not lastâtime for everything. Strap on some wheels and roll yourselves silly while Seattle rock veterans Fungal Abyssâwho feature former city attorney candidate Nicole Thomas-Kennedy’s husband Benjamin on drumsâcreate an exhilaratingly infernal soundtrack that will test your equilibrium. (Loose Wing and Corespondents also appear on the bill.)
Now, typically, the music that one hears in roller rinks is upbeat, fun, and decidedly not scary. Fungal Abyss’ long, serpentine tracksâwhich, to reiterate, they generate spontaneously while in an altered state of consciousnessâare basically the opposite of the descriptors in that last sentence… even their track called “Virile Member.” But who doesn’t crave new experiences? Cruising around in circles to disorienting, explosive rock could result in one of the greatest nights of entertainment in your lifeâat least while fully clothed.
