Black Cobra is one of those bands that when you hear them play you think, “There are really only two members in this band?”
Formed in 2001, Black Cobra combines doom and sludge metal with a driving base in hardcore to create a sound that incorporates both fast riffs and slow drones. Signed to the record label Southern Lord, Black Cobra is in good company with bands like Grief, Wino and Sunn O))).
With the assistance of Converge guitarist Kurt Ballou and his Massachusetts studio, the band released their 4th album, Invernal, this year. Pummelling it down the throats of all that partake, the band has been touring across the country all year in promotion of the record.
Right on the heels of a tour with Kyuss Lives!, The Sword and Yob, the band is headlining a new tour with Zoroaster and The Body, and that tour is stopping at the Black Cat in DC tonight. Doors are at 8pm, and all three of these bands are worth witnessing, so don’t be late!
