The Number Twelve Looks Like You have been twisting math rock and grindcore into something jagged and unpredictable for over twenty years, and they're bringing that chaos to The Wall at AREA15. This run marks the 20th anniversary of Mongrel, a record that's become something of a touchstone for fans of technical, off-kilter heaviness, so expect a set built around revisiting that material in full force. Kaonashi and Blind Equation round out the bill, adding their own brands of intensity to what's shaping up to be a night heavy on precision and noise in equal measure.
The venue itself adds an odd contrast to the evening. AREA15's blend of art installations and immersive oddities sits just outside the venue doors, so you can wander through some strange, glowing corners of the building before or after getting thrown around in the pit. It's an all-ages show, so bring whoever in your crew is into technical, brutal music, and settle in for a set that doesn't let up much once it starts.
