Fourteen years after announcing itself with the Ruiner EP, Atlanta noise-rock favorite Whores<\/a> (stylized in all-caps) still leaves fans with ears ringing.<\/p>\n

The live shows are just as cathartic, and Christian Lembach continues to bring it to fans even after a gnarly ACL injury in 2017. Lembach & co. are on the road supporting War..<\/p>\n

The outing was recorded right here in Tampa at Ryan Boesch\u2019s Candor Recording and landed at No. 15 on Rolling Stone\u2019s list of 2024\u2019s best metal albums<\/a>, with critic David Fear calling the record the band\u2019s \u201ctightest, toughest, most satisfying album to date.\u201d <\/p>\n

Tickets to see Whores play Tampa Orpheum on Thursday, Dec. 18 are still available and start at $28.69.<\/a><\/p>\n
