5 Bands You Need to See Live before Years End!!

Here are 5 bands you need to see live before the end of the year!!!

Ghost Ship Octavius
Friday December 11
w/ Next to None (Max Portnoy Mike's Son), Binary Code, Spiritual Sickness and Tungsten
Bullshooters Saloon, Philly, PA.


Ghost Ship Octavius is a Modern Progressive Metal Band featuring Matt Wicklund (God Forbid, Himsa, Warrel Dane), Van Williams (Nevermore, Ashes of Ares) and Adōn Fanion.

Melodic, proggy, and totally epic,
Ghost Ship Octavius  sound is influenced by bands like Nevermore, Symphony X, Darkology, Vanden Plas, Control Denied & Communic among others. Were I to describe the bands music style I would call it melodic prog metal with heavy/power, groovy, atmospheric, modern and dark elements, but music definitions do not matter at all as soon as you start listening to GSO. The guys have managed to craft a very powerful, intense, technical, heavy, melodic, contemporary, progressive yet personal sound, which will enthuse the fans of the 00s prog metal music. They have chosen not to add brutal vocals and that was a smart move since nowadays & brutal vocals, and extreme screams; are way too trendy and are used by everyone just for the sake of it. The heavy riffs & the potent drumming will certainly make your head bang but theres more than that. The guitar solos are amazing as well as the vocals by the budding Adon.

J and the 9's
Friday November 20th
w/ Autumn Pass, Iron Front, Too Far Gone and Dynacid
Bullshooters Saloon, Philly, PA.
“On the 26th of August on stage in Moscow will be the costumed rock n' rollers from brooklyn, j and the 9s, known for their sound, intense behavior on stage, defined costumes and lavish makeup.”


“The one reason I came to this showcase was to see J and the 9s, who shocked and awed at CBGB a few weeks ago, and not only did they live up to my expectations - they exceeded them. J and the 9s is a highly tuned, hybrid machine that brings large doses of punk mixed with some metal and good old Rock N’ Roll to form a unique but familiar sound.”
Shayne Hanley - Pancakes and Whiskey

The Madeleine Haze
Saturday December 19th
w/ Mile Marker Zero, Next to None and TBA
Bullshooters Saloon, Philly, PA.

"Imagine if Kings X, Porcupine Tree and King Crimson had a crazy love child... I saw these guys live for the first time a few weeks ago and became an instant fan."
- Matt DiFabio (Single Bullet Theory, ex-Pissing Razors)

 "There’s topical rock with a message, and then there’s the aggro, in-your-face proselytizing of The Madeleine Haze, which uses dramatic, King’s X-style hard rock imagery to make any number of sociopolitical points."
- Free Times (Columbia, SC)
