Friday, Dec. 27

Erie progressive rockers Glasswing are returning to Basement Transmissions, headlining a mixed genre show featuring local rock and metal bands while showcasing their brand new album, The Astral Tramp.

The second chapter in Glasswing's discography, The Astral Tramp, follows their debut release, 2017's Univariate. The band will be playing The Astral Tramp in its entirety, which includes the single "City of Boxes," a track that melds heavy funk influences with masterful songwriting ability.

Human Delusion (formerly known as Primal Scream Therapy) brings an entirely unique blend of psychedelic fusion metal to the stage, with influences ranging from metal, reggae, EDM, world music, and ambient music. After three tedious years of writing, re-writing, recording, and re-recording, the band finally released their debut album, Depravity, in January of 2019.

Opening acts include Sage Sedurre, an experimental electronic prog solo project featuring members of Kevlar, Amavasya, and Glasswing for live shows; Raven's Law, a metalcore band preparing for an upcoming EP release along with a new lineup; and Maroon River, Erie's latest alternative rock duo featuring former members of Red Creek. — Tommy Shannon
