Mono, Coliseum, Panthers, High on Fire October 26, 2007

Mono plays amazingly loud instrumental rock. The group is originally from Japan.

Formed in Brooklyn in 2000, this five-member group performs punk music with a political theme.

High on Fire, featuring former members of the defunct, post-metal outfit Sleep, shares a similar penchant for brutal audio assaults as well as furious and unrelenting bouts of mind-altering heaviness.
