"Best Metal Party... Precious Metal is a new night of heavy, featuring DJs and national touring bands, hosted by Curran Reynolds, party curator and drummer for local band Wetnurse. Through his band and various record label connections, Curran has sunk his fangs deep into the jugular of today's hessian underground. The party caters to the alloyed jams du jour -- mostly of the extreme-metal variety: the brutally screamed, shrieked, and chugged sounds associated with micro-genres such as the New Wave of American metal, death, black, thrash, metalcore, and noise." -The Village Voice, 2006 Best Of NYC Issue
"Precious Metal is a headbanger band-and-DJ night curated by Wetnurse
drummer Curran Reynolds. It's rich in the best of today's touring
underground bands, and has DJs spinning the best in extreme metal." -The Village Voice
"Lit on Monday nights... the party's called Precious Metal and the
music is all metal, all the time." -Paper Magazine
"Precious Metal... Wetnurse drummer and local metal booster Curran
Reynolds hosts this weekly extreme-metal showcase..." -Time Out New York
"The Monday night metal
parties at Lit Lounge were some of the year's coolest shows literally
taking place in the NYC underground. The room rules, the bands were
killer, and what was supposed to be a summer fling kept rolling
through the fall. Precious Metal forever." -The Aquarian
"You can add Curran Reynolds' Precious Metal to the spectrum of NYC
Monday institutions like Reverend Vince's residency at Black Betty or
Les Paul's at The Iridium. Reynolds, the drummer for Wetnurse, is
ideally suited for hosting what is quickly becoming regarded as New
York's premier metal party. And it's about time. Think not of all the
Motley Crue you've had to endure in Lit's basement over the years, but
instead, the dark, the noisy, the atonal, and, of course, the loud and
heavy." -NewYorkNightTrain.com
