See & Do: Music: Harvey Milk
June 17th, 2008 by Chad Radford in Music
HARVEY MILK has earned a reputation for being the heaviest band to ever come out of Athens. With its latest release, Life … The Best Game in Town (Hydra Head), the group further hones the brittle art of crafting a sound so simultaneously fast and slow that it defies simple categorization as sludge or doom and gloom metal. Crushing and elegant minimalism is the calling card for the long-standing art-metal four-piece, performing Tues., JUNE 17. An oft unsung torchbearer in the realms of avant-garde metal, the group sounds more powerful than ever after 12 years of sporadic rumblings. $10. 9 p.m. The Earl, 488 Flat Shoals Road. 404-522-3950. www.badearl.com.
