Sunday, May 30: Isis

Capitol Theater

By Nikki Talotta on May 26, 2010

Isis will be in Olympia Sunday with Christian Mistress and Brooklyn's Tombs, playing an all-ages show at the Capitol Theater - and you'll want to be there. The legendary, atmospheric and epic band's current jaunt marks Isis' last tour. Luckily, the amiable break-up is merely the result of the band feeling accomplished, like they did what they set out to do: rock heads. They're right. Isis has been doing just that for 13 years - producing exactly the kind of music you want to hear while drinking, driving, fucking, waking up, or feeling like a bad ass just for being smart enough to know this band, though not necessarily in that order. Isis will be joining the Melvins at Bonnaroo later this year and are releasing a 12" split with the quintessential sludgers later this summer.
