Shortest Straw

Fred Zeppelins, Parliament St.

Sat 22nd Aug, 8:00 pm

With support from Dead Mob and Carnyx

With a name paying homage to the legendary Metallica track, Belfast natives Shortest Straw are carving their own notch into the powerful UK and Ireland metal scene, with ambitions of showing international audiences of how truly aggressive music can sound on stage. Combining a brutal mix of thrash, death, beatdown hardcore and 00's metalcore with deeply emotional and story rich lyrics into a punishing sonic onslaught, which compels two-stepping, circle pits, and walls of death from the most reluctant show goers.

On support is Birmingham based hardcore/metal band Dead Mob, with alt-metal Band hailing from Dublin.
