Pillärs Announce East Coast and Midwest Tour Dates for April

Ohio-based purveyors of raw scathe Pillärs are heading out on a run through the Midwest and the northern part of the East Coast next month, supporting their full-length Abandoned, which was released earlier this year via Tape Haus to a vicious impression. The three-piece skirt the lines between sludge and hardcore punk and raw heavy riffing in that way that used to just be called “noise rock” until it got even madder. I’m sure the kids have a new name for it, but whatever it is, to hear the band blast their way through cuts like “Through the Storm” and the oh-here’s-a-little-black-metal-squibbly-action-for-good-measure “Beneath the Ice,” I’m not sure there’s a name that’s angry enough to cover the punishing vibe itself.

At least not yet. Someone clever will come up with something. They always do. It’s just never me.

Pillärs play some pretty venerable rooms on this tour, from Now That’s Class in Cleveland and The Bug Jar in Rochester to Saint Vitus in Brooklyn and O’Brien’s in Boston, so yeah. Good to know at least that it’s well-respected venues looking to be destroyed.
