Event Details
DOOMSDAY STUDENT(Providence, RI)
More insanity from members of Arab On Radar.
"It's impossible to talk about Doomsday Student without mentioning Arab On Radar. Let's just get that out of the way. The new band is, essentially, three-quarters of AOR with the addition of Chinese Stars' guitarist Paul Vieira. Unfortunately the recent Arab On Radar reunion was not meant to last, but this new group will satisfy much of what fans of the old band are looking for. Let's make one thing clear though: Doomsday Student is NOT Arab On Radar. Of course these guys are drawing on what they know, but they are clearly moving in a new direction. Doomsday Student's music is very bludgeoning, repetitive and full of needling, bizarre guitar and histrionic vocals, but it is also more stucturally symmetrical in nature than AOR and it is less brazenly shambolic in execution. All I know is that these guys are loud, powerful and put on a good show. Fans of high-energy, explosive music need to take not of this band and check them out." - Weasel Walter

"Not long after Arab On Radar‘s reunion last year started did it all come to an abruptly quick ending. Thankfully out of the ashes of this reunion we have 3/4ths of the band back with a new quartet Doomsday Student. The high pitched vocals and guitar noises are there but almost arranged in a little more almost more conventional structure." - Reviler.org

(Providence, RI)
Too weird to live. Too rare to die. Too bizarre to describe, especially live.
Female fronted heavy up tempo assault on the ears.

HOLY SHIT!
These Milwaukee punks have been a band for 11 years. They get better every year, which seems impossible. It's not impossible. Damn.
