Show: Black Breath “Heavy Breathing (Southern Lord), the breakneck full-length debut from Seattle’s Black Breath, deserves all the comparisons it’s been getting to Motorhead, Disfear, and Tragedy,” writes Kevin Warwick. “These guys are working in a crowded subgenre and hardly reinventing the wheel, but they do fast, loud, and brutal right: with an obscene amount of guts and balls.” Converge headlines.

Dinner: Macello Executive chef-partner Giovanni DeNigris (Trattoria Trullo) showcases the rustic cucina and robust wines of Puglia in his exposed-brick dining room, a former meatpacking warehouse, and pizzas are a good bet under the hands of chef Gino Losacco, who mans the central wood-burning brick oven.
