A passionate punk rock vocalist performs on stage, kneeling with one knee on the ground, gripping a microphone tightly with both hands and singing intensely. The singer has short dark hair, wears a black t-shirt with a graphic design, a black skirt, and black tights. Tattoos are visible on both arms, and a drum kit is seen in the background with dim stage lighting. A long-haired guitarist performs on stage under dramatic blue and purple spotlights. He is wearing a black t-shirt and jeans, playing a dark electric guitar with intense focus. His long blond hair is flowing mid-motion, and a microphone stand and amplifier are visible in the background. The stage has a powerful rock or metal vibe. A bald drummer performs on stage, mid-song, seated behind a drum kit. He wears glasses, a sleeveless work shirt with a name patch reading “Jim,” and light-colored pants. One drumstick is raised as he plays, with a microphone positioned near his mouth. The dim stage lighting gives the scene a gritty, intimate feel, and part of a banner reading “DOME” is visible in the background. A guitarist with long hair performs energetically on stage, looking up with mouth open mid-expression. He wears a black t-shirt with the words “WON’T STAY DEAD” printed in bold letters. He plays a sparkling red Gretsch electric guitar, and a second guitar is visible in the background. A portion of a bass guitar and a drum set can also be seen, with dark stage lighting highlighting the musician.

A colorful, hand-drawn concert poster for a show at Bottom Lounge in Chicago, IL, on March 29. The headlining band, 'Temple of Dome,' is displayed in large, bold green letters with a black outline at the top. Below, the supporting acts 'Glasshouse Owl,' 'The Iron Spiders,' and 'One Armed Boxer' are listed in black uppercase letters. The poster features an imaginative scene with a muscular boxer wearing red and white striped shorts and red boxing gloves, running from a massive green T-Rex with sharp teeth and a red collar labeled 'Dino.' Surrounding them are large robotic spiders with metallic bodies resembling showerheads, advancing aggressively. In the background, a neon-like outline of a house with an owl inside floats in the sky. Event details are on the right in a bold purple and black font: '3/29, Doors: 6:30 PM, Show: 7:00 PM.' The ticket prices are displayed in red: '$15 advance, $20 day of.' At the bottom, the venue name 'Bottom Lounge' is prominently displayed in black and white with a downward-pointing arrow logo. The venue's address, '1375 W Lake St. Chicago, IL,' is written below in green letters.

🥁 Timmy is basically filling in for every band in Chicago (seriously—The Bollweevils, Won’t Stay Dead, and more), while also crushing it with Chicago Live Band Karaoke.

⚰️ Saffron has been hitting the stage with Won’t Stay Dead, playing all over Chicago. They were featured on last year’s Red Scare Industries 20th anniversary comp and are gearing up for an exciting new release.

We've been a little quiet this year… but for good reason. We’ve been cooking up some original songs for you—stay tuned for more on that soon! 🔥

In the meantime, we’ve all been keeping busy:
