Self proclaimed "High-Fashion Nightmare" May May Graves brings her world of horror to life through her debut EP "Monsters". Combined with the industrial strength of Angelspit's Zoog Von Rock, "Monsters" is the first peek under the bed into a world of punk-rock slashers, murderous sirens, and seductive spirits.
“My vocal training was screaming my way through punk shows that I would host in hotel rooms before I was old enough to get into clubs! Add that to the brutal distorted production from Zoog Von Rock and you get a dream wrapped in a beautiful bout of sleep paralysis. The sound is BRUTAL with a touch of insanity. If Freddy Krueger's daughter sang about her daddy issues, you would hear the same smoothness with a hint of absolute rage.”

"I've been a fan of May May for years. Not only is her voice powerful with a smooth lining, but she is also a solid song writer. I finally got the chance to work with her on her third release “Monsters” - a beautiful and deadly homage to her many murderous musical influences like Rob Zombie, The Birthday Massacre, Mindless Self Indulgence, Nine Inch Nails, and Peaches.”
-Zoog Von Rock
Billed as the "genderfuck of your nightmares", May May quit her job as a Church of Christ preacher in 2011 to be in a punk band….it all goes downhill from there.
The year is now 2018 and May May Graves has solidified her place in the DWF burlesque and drag scene and has toured stages across America, disappointing billions and captivating few with her dark, witty, and macabre stage presence. In doing that, she was the First Drag Queen to be crowned EVIL QUEEN OF BURLESQUE in 2015 and was even the First Drag Queen featured at the Dallas Burlesque Festival 2014. Her dark, macabre, and campy fetish themed performances have captivated and terrorized audiences across the country.

I happened to be lucky that my friend couldn't find a date for an event so he generously took me with him, which happened to be one of the best experience for me in recent times. I was lucky enough to see this place. If you get a chance to check this event space Chicago out please do so.
