Read or Die!! 2023

January 29, 2023

Abominomicon reunited at the Che last night for Stay Strange’s first Read or Die!! zine fest alongside Badge Grabber and Bastard Noise.

I’m not really sure a band which played together only once prior can actually be said to have reformed (especially given the fact the lineup changed; Tenshun wasn’t available, so Sam found us an excellent replacement in Dom Cooper.) but regardless, we reprised our role accompanying a number of readers including Ryan Bradford, Ben Johnson and old friends Patrick Loveland, Chad Deal, M.J. Stevens and Ego Death. This show was a lot of fun and I believe Sam intends on holding another next year, which means Abominomicon may yet rise again…

Thought:

“Love takes off the masks that we fear we cannot live without and know we cannot live within. I use the word ‘love’ here not merely in the personal sense but as a state of being, or a state of grace — not in the infantile American sense of being made happy but in the tough and universal sense of quest and daring and growth.”
