THE BOARDWALK LOVES METALCORE! UNEARTH - OCTOBER 13, 2010
BRUTALITY ALERT! Attention Sacramento metal fans: dust off your leather, lint-roll your black tees and exercise those horns because Sacramento’s prime music venue for local and national acts is opening it’s doors to the Boston bruisers, Unearth, and head banging neck pain will never feel so rewarding! Unearth has cemented it’s reign on the world wide metal scene for over a decade, touring with the greats, such as Slayer, Devil Driver, Lamb of God, and a few rounds on the Ozzfest circuit. With four full lengths notched into the bed posts, Unearth is ready for another national tour, playing mostly with local acts along the way. In addition to witnessing a world renown metal band, Unearth will be joined by four California grown bands, including Sacto’s own, Awaiting the Apocalypse, who participated in the last YMO Sacramento edition. Congrats to them! What better place to enjoy yourself than at the boardwalk on a school night. You can even bring the kids and introduce them to brutal magnificence, know as Unearth. Johnny Love will be serving up some gnarly metal show cuisine, Claud, the irreplaceable sound guy, will make every noise beautifully distinguishable, and who knows, you might finally enjoy yourself! Boardwalk has always been there for you, you just haven’t discovered it yet. The Boardwalk is located on Greenback Blvd in Orangevale, CA shortly past Main Ave. -Words by Jon Hermison FOR MORE SHOW INFORMATION GO TO WWW.BOARDWALKROCKS.COM

This is not to be missed.” Live painting by local artist Corey Hicks and others will fill the floors throughout the night, shutterbeast J. Givens will be running photography, and a costume contest with a prize for first place will be happening later in the evening.
