With its recent rise in popularity, it sometimes feels like psychobilly has become more of a look than a music genre. Overabundance of skulls, bats, and other accessories readily available at Hot Topic aside, the psychobilly scene has some of the most loyal, supportive fans around. Nor-Cal’s Stellar Corpses has already toured Europe, and even has a street team based in Germany largely because of its devoted fans. With its punkier brand of psychobilly, the band brings somewhat of a Bad Religion/Social Distortion edge to its sound.

On Monday, December 14, lace up your creepers, glue a skull on your hairclip, and catch Stellar Corpses when they perform at The Rogue West.
