Mohawk presents punk and hardcore band Chest Pain with Laugh Track, Molly Ringworm and Fairuza Balk.
Chest Pain play Mohawk on Thursday, August 27, with Laugh Track, Molly Ringworm, and Fairuza Balk opening. It's a punk and hardcore bill, and Chest Pain is the main feature of the night.
Chest Pain bills itself as "the fastest band in Texas," and that's the best way to get a handle on what they do. They've spent over a decade playing the continent's most heavily graffitied punk and hardcore venues, and they're still playing regularly, packing crowds into small rooms. If you've seen them before, you know the drill: fast, loud, and played in the kind of rooms where you're close enough to the stage to feel the air moving. If you haven't, this is a good place to start.
The supporting acts round out the evening. Laugh Track, Molly Ringworm, and Fairuza Balk all open for Chest Pain, so it's a full night of music rather than a single set. With four acts on the bill, the show should run well into the evening, and the punk and hardcore focus stays consistent from the first opener through the headliner.

It's an all-ages show, so you can bring whoever you want. The music starts at 8:30 PM at Mohawk, which is indoors. If you're planning to catch the whole lineup, you'll want to be there early enough to see the openers before Chest Pain takes the stage.
