May 24, 2019, will be the brutally mesmerizing night to remember, as it will be the album release show for Full Upon Her Burning Lips by Olympia’s living legends Earth. For their ninth studio album, the drone lords are sonically conjuring “The Colour of Poison” and providing a hypnotic, post-rock soundtrack to “A Wretched Country of Dusk.” Joining them are local hell-raisers Helms Alee, who just dropped their fifth crusher, Noctiluca, in April, and will ceremoniously set the stage ablaze for their luminaries. Both will grace us with a seared darkness while our Seattle light grows longer. by Zach Frimmel
