Down with Helmet and Spirit In The Room
DOWN is a legendary heavy metal supergroup whose lineup has featured members of influential bands such as Pantera, Corrosion of Conformity, Eyehategod, and Crowbar, creating a powerful blend of Southern metal, sludge, doom, and classic hard rock. Since emerging in the 1990s, the band has earned widespread respect through acclaimed releases like NOLA, Down II: A Bustle in Your Hedgerow, and Over the Under, all of which showcase crushing riffs, blues-infused grooves, and deeply expressive songwriting. Joining them on this bill is Helmet, the pioneering alternative metal band founded by Page Hamilton, whose precise guitar work, unconventional rhythms, and groundbreaking albums such as Meantime helped shape the sound of modern hard rock and metal throughout the 1990s and beyond. Rounding out the lineup is Spirit In The Room, a dark and atmospheric project known for combining industrial textures, experimental soundscapes, and emotionally intense performances that push beyond traditional genre boundaries. Together, these acts represent multiple generations of heavy music innovation, offering audiences a concert experience that spans sludge metal, alternative metal, industrial experimentation, and the enduring power of live rock performance.
