Dustin Fest Vol. 50 featuring Rebelmatic, Black Market Kidney Surgeon, Scrooge Mandella and Tank Rats.
Rebelmatic are headlining Eastside Bowl on Sunday, October 18, as part of The '58: Dustin Fest Vol. 50. They're a New York band playing a punk and hardcore-influenced brand of hip-hop that's earned them respect in the hardcore scenes of Brooklyn and Long Island. They describe their sound as an authentic strain of 'Brooklyn rock,' and it leans into a trippy, 'what-if' sensibility.
They aren't the only ones on the bill. The night brings together a full lineup: Rebelmatic, Black Market Kidney Surgeon, Scrooge Mandella, and Tank Rats. It's a four-band run, so you'll get a few different sounds in one go rather than just one set. The whole thing falls under the Dustin Fest umbrella, and this is Volume 50, which puts it right at a half-century of these shows.
If you're not familiar with Rebelmatic, the description gives you a good starting point. The punk and hardcore influence is there, but it's filtered through hip-hop, and that combination is what's made them a name in the Brooklyn and Long Island hardcore scenes. That 'Brooklyn rock' label they use points toward the city they come from, and the 'what-if' side of things suggests they aren't afraid to let the songs go somewhere unexpected.
