Raw Damage. First thought that entered my head when I listened to School Shootings bandcamp page. Buzzsaw guitars, waves of screeching distortion and no-nonsense, no frills in your face hardcore. Their songs are short, barely scraping past the minute mark and they recorded their album in "one take and on cassette". That should tell you everything you need to know about School Shootings. Opening the show are locals the Fucking Hotlights (Buffablog faves), Everything Falls Apart (a personal fave and vastly underappreciated band in Buffalo) and Ida Sessions. It's only appropriate that this shows at Mohawk Place tonight (the small stage...even better!). Get there early (7pm), get wasted and have some fun.
