Make Neurosis a Priority

Posted by on Sat, Jan 5, 2013 at 9:12 AM

(Showbox at the Market) Originally formed as a hardcore punk band almost 30 years ago, Neurosis have earned status as the wise grandfathers of all that is heavy. Influencing too many acts to name, much of their work is considered to be "thinking man's metal"—though an inane term for two obvious reasons, it's meant to let you know that Neurosis are thoughtful. Their 10 carefully constructed studio albums have mutated slowly and gracefully—bending the boundaries of sludge, doom, post-metal, and industrial on their slow roll into the atmosphere. Their latest album, Honor Found in Decay, was released earlier this year and, because Neurosis don't tour often, you should make this show a 2013 priority.
