Drone Activity Chicago is a three-stage night featuring the most progressive artists working in noise, drone and experimental music. Taking place at Saffron Rails — a massive industrial space — this concert is for those who want to feel the music rattle every molecule. Headlined by Sunn O)))’s Stephen O’Malley and revered Japanese noise musician Merzbow, the event will also showcase Chicago’s most extreme independent artists. The aggressive, breakneck post-punk of Negative Scanner's Rebecca Valeriano-Flores will play alongside the dark electronic scores of Olivia Block, the punishing industrial club music of Thoom, the distorted experimental rock of veteran Chicago band ONO, and more. From an arena-level soundsystem, the ear-splitting music will score eerie, dynamic light shows. Attendees should brace themselves for a mind-altering assault of the senses.
