"Your cunning precedes you, gentle reader. Take care of yourselves and your communities out there, y'all. This includes our unhoused and immigrant neighbors, our Palestinian and trans siblings, community members experiencing disabilities, and more. The government isn't going to tend your fields, but it will harvest your crops. Build bonds and frameworks of care for one another and for yourself. I love you."
"The evergreen champion of sound exploration is a music elder, having founded the K Records band Old Time Relijun in the '90s, of which Phil Elverum was at one point a member. Outside of OTR, which is already a freaky force to be reckoned with, de Dionyso's solo research has taken him to new dimensions. Tuvan throat singing, Eastern drones, and circular breath work are but pieces of the Dionysian puzzle."
"Dante's 26th Anniversary ft. The Mummies / Nasalrod / Hopeless Jack For fans of King Khan, Murder City Devils, Dead Moon After their 25th anniversary shows last year with Satan's Pilgrims and Guantanamo Baywatch, Dante's needed another feral lineup for their 26th to keep the energy going. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the surfy garage rockers in The Mummies make feral look domesticated."
Portland's early February lineup highlights experimental and garage rock performances. Arrington de Dionyso blends Tuvan throat singing, Eastern drones, and circular breath work, drawing on roots from Old Time Relijun and K Records, supported by Cliffwalker and Tai Woodville. Dante's 26th anniversary presents a feral, surfy garage rock lineup featuring The Mummies alongside Nasalrod and Hopeless Jack, continuing the venue's tradition of energetic anniversary bills. The calendar emphasizes DIY and local scenes, encourages community care for unhoused, immigrant, Palestinian, trans, and disabled neighbors, and urges building mutual support networks rather than relying solely on government action.
