The Body

The sixth biennial experimental/metal/electronic Apex Fest goes down this year at Ridgewood, Queens venue Trans-Pecos from June 5-7. It features live music on day 1 from Jarl and more TBA; day 2 from Gnaw Their Tongues, Trepaneringspiritualen, Menace Ruine, IRM, Burial Hex, Sutekh Hexen and Barren Harvest; and day 3 from Sophia, Svartsinn, Karjalan, Northaunt, Havan, Funerary Call and a set from The Body with special guest collaborators. There’s also various short films, visual works and DJ sets. Tickets for the festival and more info HERE.

No word yet who those collaborators are, but the fest is a few weeks after The Body wrap up a tour with Full of Hell (who they’re planning a collaborative album with), and they also put out a collaborative album with Thou earlier this year.

Tickets are on sale now for The Body’s show with Full of Hell at Saint Vitus on May 16, and those bands play a matinee at ABC No Rio that day too (ticket info TBA).
