THE BLACKENED MUSIC SERIES PRESENTS
COBALT (first ever NYC show)
with Lord Mantis
Friday May 31 at Saint Vitus tickets

On May 31 The Blackened Music Series presents the first ever New York City performance from the influential, experimental, elemental black metal band COBALT. Ten years into their career, Eric is taking a break from Man’s Gin, Phil is finally back from Iraq and Korea, and for the first time we can hear their surreal avant-war/left-field black metal live. If you don’t know Cobalt listen right now to their phenomenal album Gin courtesy of Profound Lore. And come to Saint Vitus for a show people will be talking about for years to come. With Chicago’s black metal hellraisers Lord Mantis.  Flyer courtesy of Seldon Hunt.
