Tomorrow night, Saturday the 26th, is The Language of Destruktion, with The Red King, Nequaquam Vacuum, Synchronicity Frequency, Cliche Au Lait, Hail and Kiss the Goat, Sati Fyre, The TV Smasher, and The Blender of Death.
Nequaquam Vacuum, playing our last Portland show for a few months, invites all attendees to bring along any items you might like to have destroyed in a musical/performance context. Anything at all, so long as you don't need us to get it back to you. Just bring your destroyables along to the show and hand them over to a member of the NV crew, and we guarantee their absolute destruction during our closing set.

Indeed.
In this, the penultimate evening of the Fourth Annual EnterActive Language Festival; an avenging mob of musicians, performance artists, and mechanical engineers let slip their long-suppressed nihilist urges in an explosive evening of harrowing destruction. Those of you who have pondered the deeper meaning of "EnterActive" are well-advised to attend. And to bring goggles, as there may be a bit of a mess.
FEATURING Music By:
THE RED KING, NEQUAQUAM VACUUM, and SYNCHRONICITY FREQUENCY
Performances By:
MICAH PERRY, HAIL & KISS THE GOAT, and SATI FIRE
And Engines of Destruction:
ALEX LILY'S TV SMASHER
and JONAS NASH'S BLENDER OF DEATH
The Red King is the neo-classical/black metal performance project of Johann Cleereman, also known for his participation in the highly mysterious nomadic clan Corpus Corax. The Red King combines a composer's musical precision with a deep ritual commitment to his alchemic stage process, which often leads to acts of self-mutilation and the consumption of dangerous chemicals during the course of performing his soul-bearing song cycles. My friend Scott drank a goblet of his blood once, and he couldn't stand or speak for about sixteen hours.
Nequaquam Vacuum is a free post-asiatic ensemble who usually build instruments out of scrap metal and found objects. I say "usually" because tonight they will instead be destroying scrap metal and found objects, but still musically. The Vacuum is elated to have founding member Tyler Armstrong back in the fold, having performed their last few shows with the Golden Age trio of Armstrong/McAlister/Mickens as well as members of the rotating cast who have played with the latter two since the literal disappearance of the former (it turned out he was in Turkey). Tonight's guests include Nolon Ashley, Rale Sidebottom, and multi-instrumentalist "Infamous Dangerous Psychopath".
Synchronicity Frequency is the industrial solo effort of Ryan Olsen, who this evening will be creatively DJ-ing the heaviest of metal.
CLICHE AU LAIT (PDX) is a performance Art group operated by JO CASE AND Micah Perry. Since its inception in 2000. One of their intentions is to allow viewers a transcendent experience with art not signified by static objects alone. CLICHE AU LAIT offers opportunities to intervene, predict, or participate. The resulting cooperative creation process affords participants entrance into the actual realm of the art, RATHER THAN OBSERVING SOMEONE ELSES EXPERIENCE OF ART.
Hail and Kiss the Goat present: War Pigs, excerpts from an unfinished musical.
Hail and Kiss the Goat is at the cross roads of Butoh, German industrial improv, Heavy Metal and political satire.
Short and sweet, this performance version of War Pigs is as poignant as the day Black Sabbath penned it.
Sati Fire are a ritual dance troupe headed by Tamara Yeskel and Zenia Brar, who have performed together since 2002 as part of the Pan-Zen Konspiracy Nettwyrk.
Alex Lily's TV Smasher is a large and dangerous machine designed to destroy television sets.
Jonas Nash's Blender of Death is an immense and even-more-dangerous machine built from lawnmower blades and a Volkswagen engine, dedicated to the destruction of works of art.
Ka-Boom, y'all.
