EMERGING ARTIST OF THE WEEK: WHORES. ‘PLAYING POOR’

Tattoo.com and Danny Wimmer Presents (DWP) proudly present Emerging Artist of the Week, Whores., a noise rock trio from Atlanta, GA. Members include Christian Lembach on vocals/guitar, Casey Maxwell on bass, and Donnie Adkinson on drums. 

Whores. was voted as one of SPIN’s must-see bands at SXSW in 2014 and their album ‘CLEAN’ made the top 10 of SPIN’s ’20 Best Metal Albums of 2013′. Whores. formed in 2010 and has been touring the U.S. playing shows with bands like Royal Thunder, Iron Reagan, Red Fang, Deafheaven, Obliterations, and many others. 

“Bearing witness to a WHORES show is like being crushed under the tread of a Panzer tank as it charges into battle.” -Creative Loafing Atlanta, Critics Pick: Best of Atlanta 

“Whores is relentless and merciless in its sonic attack: Its gigantic walls of fuzz and thunderously colossal low-end rumble recall The Melvins’ refined sludge; the epic, primal howls, feedback-heavy rests and meticulous precision recall the best of The Jesus Lizard and Karp. Simply: Whores f#!king slays. Period.” -Free Times, Columbia’s Free Weekly 

You can see Whores. perform at Aftershock coming up on October 22nd and 23rd at Discovery Park in Sacramento, CA. For updates on the band’s set day/time, follow Aftershock on Facebook.
