About The Frights and YOU ARE GOING TO HATE THIS

The Frights are a San Diego-bred punk and indie rock band known for marrying surf-punk energy with raw, confessional songwriting. Formed in the early 2010s, the group built a fiercely loyal following through relentless touring and a sound that sits at the intersection of skate culture, emotional vulnerability, and garage rock grit. Their 2016 album You Are Going to Hate This is the record that cemented their reputation — a bracingly honest collection of songs that resonated deeply with a generation of listeners who were tired of pretense and hungry for music that felt real.

Ten years after that album's release, The Frights are taking it back out on the road in full anniversary tour fashion. This is not a nostalgia cash-grab — it is a band reclaiming a defining moment in their catalog and performing it for audiences who have carried these songs with them for a decade. Expect an electric, high-energy set that honors the original record while reminding everyone why The Frights remain one of the most compelling live acts in independent punk and rock.

Mexican Slum Rats join as support, adding another layer of raw, unfiltered punk energy to the night. The pairing is a natural one — two acts that understand the power of loud guitars, honest lyrics, and a room full of people who mean every word they sing back at the stage.

The Masquerade Experience

There is no venue in Atlanta quite like The Masquerade. Housed in the historic Underground Atlanta complex, The Masquerade is a multi-stage live music venue that has been a cornerstone of Atlanta's alternative, punk, metal, and indie scenes for decades. The venue operates across three distinct rooms — Heaven, Hell, and Purgatory — each offering a different capacity and atmosphere, allowing promoters to match the room to the moment.

For a show like The Frights' 10 Year Anniversary Tour, The Masquerade is the precisely right venue. The low ceilings, the tight crowd, the sound that hits you in the chest — this is a room built for punk rock. The energy between performers and audience at The Masquerade is immediate and intimate in a way that larger venues simply cannot replicate. When the band drops into a track that the crowd has known by heart for ten years, the walls feel it.

The venue is accessible via MARTA, with the Five Points station serving as the closest rail stop, just a short walk from Underground Atlanta. Street parking and nearby parking decks are also available in the surrounding area. The Masquerade draws fans from across metro Atlanta — from Midtown and Decatur to East Atlanta Village and beyond — and on a summer night in July, the energy outside the venue matches what is happening inside.
