Metal Shows in Chicago

Before the gold and platinum certifications, sold-out theaters, and a cultural resurgence that brought a new generation of true believers to their music through TikTok and arena tours, Sleeping With Sirens was a leap of faith grounded in intuition and a unique voice that?s impossible to mistake. Kellin Quinn didn't enter the post-hardcore scene sounding like the typical frontman. His powerful, passionate, urgent, and unique voice cut through the noise around them, both literal and figurative. The band connected with those who felt similarly out of step; listeners seeking solace in songs that echoed their deepest insecurities, resentments, anxieties, tensions, and fears. SWS felt like medicine. The thrillingly energized new album, An Ending in Itself, proves that the bond between the band and its passionate audience remains its defining strength. Produced by Will Yip (Turnstile, Panic! At The Disco, Circa Survive), the band?s eighth LP represents both a homecoming and a reckoning.

Doors: 8PM / Show: 9PM / 21+ Agriculture is a Los Angeles--based band channeling ecstatic black metal into something spiritual, grounded, and definitely present. Emerging from the city's noise scene, the band coalesced into its current form with Dan Meyer, Leah Levinson, Richard Chowenhill, and Kern Haug. Their music fuses the searing intensity of black metal with Zen Buddhist thought, queer history, and devotional songwriting. The result is a sound that resists algorithmic flattening and demands full attention. Their process is rooted in community and persistence: songs are written, dismantled, and rebuilt together. The Spiritual Sound, their new full-length, builds on the radiant extremity of their previous releases and pushes further: music not for escapism, but for confrontation and catharsis. This is not a vibe. It's a demand.

This is an outside promoter show, for any questions/inquiries please reach out to support@eventcartel.com Forty years have gone since ARIA first stepped onto the stage to instantly conquer audiences with an incredible concentration of drive, melody, and charisma. Since their debut performance in 1985, when ARIA burst onto the domestic scene like a real hurricane and completely changed listeners' idea of what "real rock music" is, the band has traveled an enormous creative path. They have become one of the most known and successful metal bands in the entire post-Soviet space and today rightfully bear the title of The Legend.

Everything I Ever Saw finds the Menzingers entering a new era in what?s already been a storied career. The Philadelphia punk legends? eighth album chronicles moments of significant change?the personal, the political, and the universal?while returning to the core creative principles that first put them on the map with listeners the world over. Twenty years in, the Menzingers have discovered that the wisdom gained with time?s passing is even stronger than the emotional armor they once wore in their youth, and Everything I Ever Saw captures the quartet embracing the here and now while strengthening the bonds that have held them together.

Turnover?s sixth album, Down On Earth is a foundational shift for the band. It?s an evolution encompassing fragments of the various sounds and scenes they?ve cut their teeth in over their decade-spanning career. Honed in with the help of their longtime front of house engineer Zac Montez, Turnover sought out to and succeeded in capturing the essence of their renowned live show to Down On Earth. The album is also the most collaborative in their discography. The band reconvened after 2022?s Myself in the Way and took their time, utilizing the course of four years to hammer out the shape of their new album in the room together, iterating and improvising on ideas, experiences, riffs, and stray lyrics that each member brought to those sessions from lived experiences and life changes over that span.
