Jucifer, Savagist, Juna


Let’s call doom-metal duo Jucifer early adopters of the tiny house craze: For 15 years, the onetime Athenians have lived full-time in their touring vehicle, a minimally tricked-out Winnebago. While traveling constantly, the group has managed to release new music at a near-breakneck clip. Now, they’ve figured out how to streamline the process even further—by recording said music themselves inside the van. Produced in such a manner, last year’s politically charged District of Dystopia is the band’s angriest, most grimy sounding release to date. Get your eardrums blasted Tuesday, when the notoriously noise-loving band plays Caledonia.
