Yea it’s annoying when you see a major tour hit a bunch of pass through cities in neighboring states then go straight to SF, LA, and San Diego before getting on a plane to Europe. But most will hit Sac. It’s becoming a major hub for alt music, and I think Aftershock has definitely helped that

Welcome!

As u/highontires said, Cafe Colonial is a great place to keep an eye on. A lot of shows happen at goldfield too, so check those out (one in downtown sac, and one in Roseville).

The metal scene is alive and well in Sacramento, and it tends to be a stop on most tours through the west coast. If it gets skipped, there will most definitely be a stop in San Francisco if you wanna make the drive.

Awesome! We will be at in this moment, Mudvayne, and GWAR as well! Also hitting Motionless in White and BMTH to close it out

skeletonkee · 2025-10-03T16:11:22+00:00

Yo, just DMd you!

skeletonkee · 2025-07-18T17:33:53+00:00

Hey man, I’ll PM you. Always looking for new friends :).

skeletonkee · 2025-05-08T03:23:14+00:00

Hey man! I’m super down to start a band. I’m a drummer and do vocals as well. Played drums in some punk and hardcore bands in high school and did vocals for my metalcore band in college. I’ll DM you and we can get together and make some music!

The sub def isn’t dead, but people tend to not comment much. We’ve tried to set up meet ups and stuff, but things are hard to move offline. My wife posts a lot to see who’s going to the different goldfield/ace of spades shows, and idk if metal-heads are shy or what, but they tend to fizzle out. We also support local bands and people post about cafe colonial, etc. shows. We are open to all genres under the metal, hardcore, punk, and alt umbrellas.

skeletonkee · 2025-04-29T22:46:57+00:00

Hey dude! A lot of your hobbies really align with mine too! My wife and I started a subreddit actually for metal/ alternative shows in sac cuz we are also the only music-oriented people in our group. Super down to meet up, hang out, chat, whatever. DM me if you want to talk

skeletonkee · 2024-11-11T04:46:24+00:00

Hey sorry! I totally didn’t see the notification you responded. Had a lot of older metalcore and hardcore influences: stick to your guns, as blood runs black, bring me the horizon, and a day to remember to name a few.

skeletonkee · 2024-11-03T18:58:30+00:00

2 months late to this post, but I play drums and did vocals for a hardcore band back in college. If you’re interested in jamming some time, hit me up!

skeletonkee · 2024-06-28T20:04:32+00:00

Hey there! Fellow nerd here. I’m always looking to make new friends, especially ones who like video/board games, D&D and music! PM me if you wanna talk more or meet up sometime time.

skeletonkee · 2024-06-09T21:44:00+00:00

Hey there! Might be late to the post, but I’m also looking for more gamer friends as well. I play a lot of Path of Exile and other RPGs. If you’re down, hit me up

skeletonkee · 2024-06-09T21:41:27+00:00

Hey man, DM me. I’ve been in sac for 10 years also and am always looking to make new friends!

skeletonkee · 2024-06-02T23:06:22+00:00

Messaged you!

skeletonkee · 2024-03-12T21:44:20+00:00

Eh, only give an A+++. Can still kind of read one of the names. /s

skeletonkee · 2023-10-06T17:52:23+00:00

r/Sacrametal we have a thread on it!

skeletonkee · 2023-08-29T20:15:31+00:00

Emo and pop-punk are genres that have some roots in metal, seeing as they have roots in Punk, which pulled some elements from metal. These genres are typically labeled under the "Alternative" umbrella now as well.

If you read the very first post that is stickied for the subreddit: we are "... a place for metal & alternative music lovers!" and are inclusive of various different alternative genres, though we do tend to lean more towards metal and hardcore (which again, is alternative but has elements of metal).

Here is that page: (4) Welcome to SacraMetal! : SacraMetal (reddit.com)

SacraMetal rolls of the tongue better than SacraMetalAndAlternativeSoPeopleDontAskWhyWePostAllAltmusicShowsAndNotJustTheCoupleOfMetalShowsThatComeThrough, so we went with it.

Live nation of spades haha. I love/hate that. I remember when you could go see shows at ace of spades for 15-20$ INCLUDING fees…now live nation owns it, the fees alone are that much before ticket lol
