Daikaiju, a mysterious chimera of sound and imagery that has been performing since 1999, makes its Medford debut at Deep Cuts. Entities of sonic mayhem, Daikaiju takes the sound of waves crashing and shrieking atomic lizards and makes it rock in a way that instills shock and awe in all who experience their shows — a highly interactive and confrontational performance that literally draws the audience into the massive vortex of sound generated by the band. Concealed behind masks, this troupe of mystery people create a mutant style of epic, high-energy instrumental rock that seamlessly incorporates a wide variety of musical styles including surf, punk, noise, metal, psychedelic and progressive rock. Also performing will be Eight Foot Manchild and The Electric Heaters. Doors open at 7 p.m. with music at 8. Tickets are $15 in advance, $20 day of show through Dice.
