No matter how much napkin you shove in your ear, the P.A. system at Chapel Hill Underground on Rosemary Street is still going to hurt.
Systems, Host, Grohg and O God the White Whale played the type of hair-raising hardcore Tuesday where the dynamic range varies between loud and very loud, and mid-tempo dredges build into walls of sound that punch through cones, domes and tweeters and into your face.
Maybe now’s a good time to invest in ear plugs.
