Thursday, May 10

This week, Alex Harilla's Gimp Guy Underground Promotions will host their debut show at the 9th Street Beer Cafe, featuring San Diego-based Some Kind of Nightmare alongside locals Dysmorphia and Insult to Injury. Some Kind of Nightmare arrive on their Damaged But Not Broken! Tour, supporting a recent single "Generations Dead" as well as their half of a recent three-song split with Swift Knuckle Solution of Violent Breed Records.

Each band's sound and self-identified labels make it perfectly clear that this is a punk show, with varying descriptors (Dysmorphia referring to themselves as "riot groove punk," Insult to Injury calling themselves "melodic punk," and Some Kind of Nightmare going with "politically charged punk"). — Aaron Mook

8 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. // 832 State Street // Free Show // 21+
