In March, post-punk legends Wire curated a festival in London called DRILL: London. Now they're bringing it stateside, for the upcoming DRILL: Seattle.

The three-day fest will take place November 21-23 at Barboza, the Crocodile, and Neumo's. Other acts playing DRILL include Helmet, Chastity Belt, Vestals, and Earth. As it did in London, the festival will include a performance from the PinkFlag Guitar Orchestra, in which other artists join Wire on stage for a rendition of "Pink Flag." Wire will also perform their song "Drill" with other artists.
