Voodoo Glow Skulls, The Social Ills
What:
Bad Kitty presents Voodoo Glow Skulls and The Social Ills Tuesday, July 14, at Arcata Theatre Lounge, 1036 G St in Arcata. Doors open at 8 p.m. Cost is $10 and is 18 and over.
In their sixteen years of existence, the Voodoo Glow Skulls have an impressive list of achievements. Seven albums, one million records sold, appearances in exotic locations like Brazil and Japan as well as the creation of a record store, record label, recording studio and a music venue attests to the remarkable creativity and energy of the band. Formed in 1988, Voodoo Glow Skulls meshed hardcore punk, traditional ska, tough guitar riffs and the Mexican music of their roots to create the prototype for the West Coast ska-core sound, influencing a wide range of bands from Sublime to No Doubt. Unflinchingly honest, their songs often used humor to comment on harsh political realities – from racial inequity to unrest overseas. Singing in both Spanish and English, Voodoo Glow Skulls’ bilingual musical tradition has been a hallmark of the band since they began.http://voodooglowskulls.com/Main/ The Social Ills are a hardcore, Northern California punk rock band doing their part to keep loud, fast music alive in Humboldt County.myspace.com/thesocialills1
