The Austin Heavy Music blog keeps us marinating in the molten lava pit of our town’s metal and hard rock scene, and now puts its horns where its fangs are with its first fest. Grok everyone from the melodic doom of the Well to the deathcrush weirdness of Rise Thy Ruin and pop-eyed thrash of the Blood Royale. Teethgrinders Rust, Destroyer of Light, Nazarene, and Ass also abuse amps and eardrums. 6pm, no cover.
