Weekend Nachos are Calling it Quits :(
Welcome back to our regular posting schedule. First up: Some shit-ass news. Weekend Nachos, the greatest powerviolence band to ever come out of DeKalb, Illinois, is calling it quits.
Weekend Nachos announced over the, uh, weekend, that this will be their final year as an active band. It sucks, brah. I’ve been obsessively following Weekend Nachos like a total Stan dork for years. If you haven’t followed the band as closely, you’ve been missing out on one of the best (and quirkiest) bands in punk.
Weekend Nachos isn’t leaving you empty-handed; Relapse will release their final full-length Apology, sometime this year, and the band is playing a bunch of shows throughout 2016. Be sure to check them out if you don’t wanna wait til the reunion gig at Maryland Death Fest 2025. Can’t make it? This memorial video is just for you:
