Xasthur

Xasthur, the project of Scott Conner, comes to Stanczyks Music Bar for a live performance. Known for pioneering a raw, melancholic style of black metal, Xasthur has evolved over the years, incorporating elements of dark folk and acoustic material. This is a chance to see a rare live appearance from an artist whose work has significantly influenced the underground metal scene, offering a deep dive into his atmospheric and often somber soundscapes. This show is on Sunday, October 4, 2026, at Stanczyks Music Bar in Durham, NC. Stanczyks is a smaller room, typically offering an intimate setting for live music. Fans of experimental metal, dark folk, and atmospheric, introspective music will likely find this an engaging night.
