The Forbidden Zone is a new house venue in Kalamazoo, making their debut in late October for a Halloween industrial/noise/goth show. This show is looking to span a huge range of genres, and focus on getting regional bands involved more!

This upcoming show features shoegaze, post rock, punk rock and hardcore elements. Lots of bands traveling from out of town to see what Kalamazoo is all about, so lets show them a good genre-mashing time. Damn near guaranteed to have something for everyone.

LUME – Chicago, IL – heavy noisey shoegaze with influences from post-hardcore. Really big sound

NORTHERNER – Macomb, MI – beautiful, soundscape post-rock

THE TINY UGLY GERMS – Port Huron, MI – melodic punk / post hardcore with some elements of droney-shoegaze

SIDELINED. – Sterling Heights, MI  – pop punky/hardcore/punk rock hearkening back to nights spent at The Fat Guy House

APPLEGATE – Kalamazoo, MI – ethereal blues big harmonies

Show starts at 8! Please bring donations, there’s lots of car gas tanks to feed for this show. Email DITkalamazoo@gmail.com for the address.
