Brutal Sound Effects Festival #102 lands at Live Worms Gallery / The Church of Mother Gong for the first time — an evening of adventurous sound, unruly electronics, noise, performance, and other excursions into the experimental.

This edition brings together Joseph Hammer (LA), Bullshit Detector, Rat Diet, Lime Rickey International, Ploc Munster, and Lime Eyelid for a night of strange sounds, unexpected turns, and performances that move between the abrasive, hypnotic, playful, and surreal. A longtime fixture in San Francisco’s experimental underground, the festival occupies its own peculiar territory: part concert, part gathering, part controlled accident.

For Festival #102, that strange little universe takes over Live Worms in North Beach for the first time. Show starts at 8pm sharp! Plan to arrive in North Beach early if you're driving, as parking is hard to find! $6-10 cash or Venmo at the door if you wish to avoid additional fees.
