Coaxial presents an evening of esoteric metal and dark noise, featuring Santa Cruz abstract-metal outfit Misericordia, one-man doom/industrial project Echo Death, the "crepuscular electronics" of Wilshire Corridor, and LA industrial-noise mainstay Rust Worship.

Misericordia

Abstract Death Doom Metal with influences ranging from Jazz, Ambient, and Classical music. Never stagnant nor confined by any one genre trope, they aim to soar wildly and paint with vivid color. Truth in expression of the mind and exploration of spiritual malady. Searching for solace and serenity.

Brazenly flourished dark doom elements collide with electronic textures and strangled vocals to create an absolute nightmare. An alien hellscape of a dream where malevolence hides behind every mirage of safety, and there's no way to wake up.

"While still sulking through the shrouded alleys that connect industrial, black metal, and dark ambient music, The Bleeding Coast is a new mutation for Wilshire Corridor. The heavy rhythms and vocals prominent on their first album, The Fig & The Wasp, have dissipated, leaving only a viscous murk in their place. Heavy, churning drones fill the void, creating an impenetrable darkness. Feedback and distortion ripple and crack at the edges." - Dylan Ettinger

Rust Worship is the solo industrial-noise project of Paul Haney, founder of the Obsolete Units label. Unfolding burns of decaying tape, environmental cacophony, distorted drones, and spectral emissions.
