Shi’s 10-Year Anniversary with Bad Wires and Loreborn
Mag Bar | 1398 S. 2nd St. | magbarlouisville.com | $10 | 8:30 p.m. | 21 and over

A lot happened in 2015: same-sex marriage was legalized in all 50 states, the first Apple Watch was introduced, Kanye West announced his candidacy for president, and a new Louisville band called Shi (stylized as 死—which is a kanji that represents death in Japanese) started crafting and churning out their brand of Black Sabbath-influenced depressive stoner doom. 10 years later, “The most punctual band in Louisville” is still going at it, having just released their latest 12-song album, Pure Disgust, back in November of last year.

Join them at Mag Bar as they celebrate a decade of “Deep Fried Doom ‘n Roll” with local noise rock favorites Bad Wires and new Louisville heavy rockers Loreborn. Cheers to 10 years, and cheers to 10 more!
