Flipper • 16 / Supersonic (Free entry) - SUPERSONIC

FLIPPER (Punk hardcore - San Francisco, USA) Originally started by members of NO TREND & THE SLEEPERS in the spring of 1979 and with only 2 original members left today - Stephen De Pace (on drums) and Ted Falconi (on guitar) - Bay Area´s "punk rock" legends FLIPPER need no introduction. Heavily influenced by The Birthday Party, The Velvet Underground, Chrome, PIL, Joy Division and The Stooges to name a few, they have, throughtout their 40+ year spanning career, inspired a large number of bands with their unique slowed-down, bass-driven, heavily distorted and repetitive style of "punk" . Some of the bands that mention them as a major influence and have both covered their songs and collaborated on different projects, are The Melvins, Terminal Cheesecake, REM, Mudhoney, Unsane, Jane´s Addiction, Unwound and last but not least Seattle´s Nirvana, whose bass player Krist Novoselic played and toured with the band in the 2000s. https://open.spotify.com/artist/20VDXslLsXlLgSF765m1Ug https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OV1gn8b8Kd8 16 (Métal sludge - San Diego, USA) -(16)- return with their new album, Dream Squasher. A testament to the power of loss, every moment of Dream Squasher casts the Southern California band into new, deeper depths. "A conscious effort was made to inject some positivity into the lyrical themes," guitarist and lead vocalist Bobby Ferry explains. "The best we could come up with is loving your dog so much, you'd end up killing yourself if your dog dies." https://16theband.bandcamp.com/music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5yTzzQkD6M La suite de la programmation arrive très vite ! ——————————— Mardi 9 Août 2022 Entrée gratuite jusqu'à 23h • Ouverture des portes à 19h00 • Happy Hour de 19h à 20h (3€50 la pinte) ——————————— SUPERSONIC 9 rue Biscornet, 75012 Paris Métro Bastille (sortie rue de lyon) http://supersonic-club.fr/
