On August 16, both Cyanotic and Derision Cult will be playing Thrashnetic 2 at X-Ray Arcade in Cudahy.

This one means more than just another show. The event is being held in memory of Josh Russo, who was a huge supporter of Glitch Mode and the music around it. He was one of those people who genuinely showed up, paid attention, and helped make the whole thing feel like a real community instead of a collection of bands shouting into the void.

The night will also raise money and awareness for suicide prevention and mental health. That makes it important for reasons well beyond who is on the bill.

We are honored to be part of it, and we would love to see a packed room for Josh. Come early, stay for the whole thing, and help us make some noise for somebody who meant a great deal to this scene.
