There are far worse things you could be doing this Saturday night than spending it at the Scape Analog Factory with four great local metal outfits, namely Radiant Archery, Marijannah, Plague Bearer and Hrvst.

This will be Marijannah's (pictured, right) first ever show after the release of their excellent debut album Till Marijannah last week. It'll also be the first time we've heard from Radiant Archery (pictured, left) and Plague Bearer since they both put out releases last year, while you should definitely have an earful of Hrvst's new single 'Fear Reduction', released last month, to get a sense of what their brand of sludge is all about. Check that out below.

Radiant Archery, Marijannah, Plague Bearer and Hrvst play the Scape Analog Factory on Saturday, 24 February. Doors open at 7.30pm. Entry is $10 at the door.
