A flexible, all-ages room in a former garment factory at 1720 East 16th Street, in the warehouse district east of downtown Los Angeles — “the pre-gentrified war zone of the Warehouse District”, as co-owner Brett Powell has described the block. Alex Alereza, Powell and Travis Richter opened it as a room that could be rearranged rather than a club with one fixed shape: high ceilings, exposed pipe and steel beams, and no décor to speak of.

The booking runs from punk, hardcore and metal through hip-hop, electronic and indie, and the main room changes with it — a tight pit for the heavy nights, a wide floor for the dance ones. For touring extreme music it has become one of the more dependable stops in Los Angeles.

A short-lived but well-loved suburban rock club in Aurora, Illinois, west of Chicago. In the early 2000s it was one of the few rooms in the far suburbs booking national death metal and hardcore tours.
