For the first time in Serbia! With japanoise icon Merzbow and italian post-industrial master Bad Sector sharing the same stage, Drugstore Belgrade is about to become ground zero for a sonic experiment that could just as plausibly be staged inside a particle accelerator. A key event for anyone hunting for experiences that push the boundaries of human hearing and physical sensation.
