The second annual Bruisefest is bringing the best of local hardcore and punk music together for two nights of chaos. Night one will feature Athens hardcore bands Snuki, Pervert, Delta 8 and Big Trouble, which is a new supergroup featuring members of Snuki, Pervert, Weaponized Flesh and Apparition. They will be joined by Atlanta bands Allergic and Identity Shock. The first night is also a record release show for Moby Dick, Pervert’s first full-length LP, which was recorded by David Barbe at Chase Park Transduction. Night two will feature Athens bands that range from acid punk to post-punk to doom punk to hardcore punk, including Rubber Udder, Coma Therapy, Regulator, Ralph, Beer Piss and Centipede. Bruisefest is a benefit event for ARC Southeast, which provides funding and logistical support to ensure safe and compassionate reproductive care for people in the South.
