‘Thrash and Burn’ at House of Blues

July 26, 2009 - 8:33 am

Save money on Red Bull with a show that’ll double as one prolonged adrenaline rush.

The second installment of the “Thrash and Burn Tour” is a high-energy outburst of mostly young heavy hitters, with the exception of headliners Devildriver, who’ve been throwin’ haymakers in the metal underground for a few years now.

They’ll be joined by deathcore up-and-comers such as Emmure, Oceano, Despised Icon, Veil of Maya and more. Burn, baby, burn at 4 p.m. today at the House of Blues at Mandalay Bay, 3950 Las Vegas Blvd. South. Tickets are $23.50; call 632-7600.
