    Graveyard, Billy King & the Bad Bad Bad

    Disbanding in 2016, these Gothenburg post-blues ghouls returned last year with fifth full-length Peace, a typically Graveyard torpedo of Blue Cheer psych, Swede folk, Britpop, and even a Grand Funk Railroad meets the Hellacopters moment (“Please Don’t”). Praise be to Joakim Nilsson, who Decibel magazine wrote “recalls a throat-flayed Ian Gillan.” Austin’s Billy King & the Bad Bad Bad opens.

    Comedy

    Punch Comedy

    That's right, Matt Bearden's legendary Tuesday night comedy showcase returns for another year of highlighting the best talent in town. Not sure who's on the lineup – it changes from week to week, of course, and is sharply curated – but there's always Bearden, of course, and a bunch of people who can make you laugh yourself to shambles. Word to the wise: This gig sells out like whoa, so reserve tickets early.
    Tue., Dec. 3, 8pm. $7-11.

    Venom Prison, Homewrecker, Great American Ghost, Familiar With Failure

    Welsh death metal brutarians Venom Prison bring down the heavens one cataclysm at a time. The UK fivepiece gains mass behind two Prosthetic Records full-lengths, including March’s acclaimed Samsara, a screaming fusillade of punishing density. Russian vocal eviscerator Larissa Stupar proves an instant high priestess of worship.
