    About This Event

    Prague-born indie rock project Prostitute, led by vocalist Adrian T. Bell, appears on the Loathe: A Stranger to You bill at the Brooklyn Paramount. Since 2006's Get Me Out of Here the group has worked at the edge of rock/pop and noise rock, and at venues like the Knitting Factory their sets favor tight song forms, abrasive guitar and controlled volume—qualities likely to shape their Paramount set.

    About A Stranger to You

    At Brooklyn Paramount, the “A Stranger to You” bill brings together Loathe, Fleshwater, and Prague-born indie rock project Prostitute, fronted by vocalist Adrian T. Bell. Active since the mid-2000s, Prostitute works in the overlap of rock/pop structure and noise-rock abrasion, a lineage New York audiences have long tracked in rooms like the Knitting Factory. The setlist tends to emphasize shifts in texture and volume over clean genre boundaries. One clear takeaway is how the lineup treats heaviness as arrangement, not just intensity.

    About the Artists

    Loathe

    Loathe

    shoegaze

    Loathe is a Liverpool-based band that threads heavy metal through metalcore and nu-metal structures, with detours into shoegaze haze and industrial texture. Since forming in 2014, the group has built a sizable listening audience online while keeping its sound restless and hybrid.

    Fleshwater

    shoegaze

    Fleshwater is a Boston rock project formed in 2017, built by musicians drawn from the heavy-band ecosystem around Vein.fm and later expanded with additional members on vocals, bass, and guitar. Their songs sit between rock/pop structure and shoegaze haze, with arrangements that lean on dense guitars and steady rhythm.
