Local Releases: Listening In the Rain

Brand-new music from The Wild War, Advent Horizon, Entomb The Wicked and more

So on an evening with on-and-off rain, tons of people made their way over to the brand new God Hates Robots gallery and ticket shop on West Broadway, to see an array of established and rising artists display their works for the inaugural show.
