#local bands

We're revving up again, so I made sure I could still draw them, lol

The werewolf is an ex-bandmate that we kicked tf out due to him being a massive creep and overall douche, so the lore is that "he got rabies, so we put him down"

They're called Vetus Morbus, and they're an Eldritch swamp cabaret punk band based in southern Louisiana 👹💀🧟🌌

Another poster to add to my local bands collection.

The venue squats like a bruise on the block flickering sign, one vowel burnt out Inside, the air tastes of coins and regret sweet baked into the walls from older nights that never really ended

The local band is setting up names nobody remembers amps scarred like knuckles drums held together by faith and duct tape They tune their guitars the way you test a wound careful, then reckless

I stand with strangers who all look like me if life had leaned a little harder Black shirts, cheap beer, eyes lit by something between hope and exhaustion We nod at each other, a silent pact we came to feel something loud

When they start, its not music at first it’s impact Sound slams into my ribs rattles loose the thoughts I keep nailed down The singer screams like he’s confessing to a god that stopped answering the mail years ago

The lights stutter Time folds in on itself For forty minutes, nothing exists but feedback, bodies colliding and the comfort of knowing everyone here is a little broken and choosing noise instead of silence
