We spoke about Twelve Lounge earlier this week, but now for some visual proof this place has scrubbed itself clean of Hed Kandi’s douchiness. Black Betty is the lounge’s newest Tuesday night party, and with a little help from the Overthrow gang, this might be reason enough to go out…
The Los Angeles-based five-piece Terror formed in 2002, after the ’90s golden years when hardcore was still hard. Still, burly frontman Scott Vogel and company have from the beginning fought the good fight, keeping the music pummeling and punishing, but without any of today’s trendy death-core trappings. Whenever Terror flirts…

Nothing really shocks us anymore concerning Miami’s night life scene. We’ve seen it all. Whether bathrooms that double as drug dens or strippers doubling as backup dancers, this city is a cornucopia of vice. Still, when Overthrow promised a live murder at this past Arcade party at White Room, we…
