'Boomslang Festival' Poster - Thumbnail

A “boomslang”, according to Wikipedia, is “a relatively small, venomous colubrid snake native to sub-Saharan Africa.” It also sounds a lot like the name of a mid-90s European rap “crew”, no? So it’s surprising that a music festival down there in beautiful Lexington, KY, that’s put together a roster of ill experimental rock acts, should [...]
