Watching The Acacia Strain perform at Empire Underground was one of the most intense shows that I've personally been to. What I enjoyed most about the night was the female presence on stage leading up to the headline act, and I left the show having discovered more bands to listen to on repeat.

The Acacia Strain, a 5 piece metal core band from Chicopee, Massachusetts hit The Thekla, Bristol on January 29th. The fan base must’ve been excited to experience this incredible band on a former cargo ship, because I know I was!
