Plague Venfor descended upon the Chi and tore it up! They are the best, most electrifying and tightest band to come out of the west coast in decades. Best frontman ever!!! Brandon is the ultimate showman and watching him is pure pleasure. These dudes are serious fucking musicians. Master class and rising. Luke is the fastest drummer I have ever seen and imo best living American drummer out there. The intensity these dudes bring is next level. They scorched the earth in their first Chicago show. Get your asses back her stat. Legendary band in the making.

Plague Vendor Biography
“Plague Vendor is a graveyard groove. It’s something you can shake it to. It’s a sound and a spirit, and it’s guided by love. Anything can happen if you just keep going.”
Formed in 2008, the band carved a name for themselves in the Los Angeles club scene with their unhinged physical live shows and turbulent flavor of post-punk. Word was out that frontman Brandon Blaine’s enigmatic presence drew parallels with young Iggy Pop and Nick Cave. Their performances caught the attention of Epitaph Records owner Brett Gurewitz. He signed them to the label in 2013.
Their debut album Free To Eat clocked a combustible ten songs at seventeen minutes. It received critical acclaim drawing comparisons to Gun Club, Iggy & The Stooges, The Cramps, and Jesus Lizard.
The two follow up albums BLOODSWEAT and By Night bolstered up their reputation as a heavy hitting rock band who knew their way around a studio. These two albums showed Plague Vendor expanding on their sound by working with producers Stuart Sikes (White Stripes, The Walkmen) and John Congleton (St. Vincent et al.), respectively.
The band’s top-of-the-class live show has secured them spots opening for the likes of Muse, Deftones, The Offspring, Social Distortion, Refused and many others. They have received generous write-ups for their appearances in the US/UK festival and club circuits.
Plague Vendor is continuing to hold up their reputation as one of the hardest working bands on the stage with newly recruited Henri Cash (Starcrawler) on guitar duties. The band has been testing new material on the road.
