San Antonio native MVTANT, hot off their Oblivion Access appearance in May, returns to downtown Austin. Their danceable brand of dark, industrial noise is melodically refined with an Eighties death rock vibe and sharpened with a metallic edge. Likeminded darkwave duo Psychic Killers journey down from Denton, bringing an improvisational energy along with their bleak drum and bass loops. Local metal-adjacent, experimental partners-in-crime Deep Cross supply the concert’s crushingly heavy end. Truly a night for the goths, dancers, and headbangers alike.
