The Red Party: BLACK ROSE BURNING LIVE!

If you've still got an ounce of midnight oil to burn, The Red Party is where you'll want to do it. Presented by The Nite Church at the ever-iconic Mercury Lounge, this event is a siren call to the nocturnal souls of NYC. DJs Sean Templar and Jarek are about to unleash a sonic storm of goth, post-punk, and deathrock that promises to swirl you into an underground reverie. And just when you think you’ve reached peak darkness, Astari Nite will take the stage, casting shadows with their live performance that's more hypnotic than your favorite cult classic. Special guest DJ Hi-Fi Hillary will be spinning tracks that could resurrect Ian Curtis himself. At $15 a pop, it's basically a steal—like finding a first-pressing vinyl in your local thrift store. So dust off your creepers, slap on some smudged eyeliner, and be ready to dance like you're summoning spirits. The night is yours, but only if you dare. Doors open at 10—sleep is for the weak.
