Baltimore industrial quartet Ego Likeness are hosting a hometown gathering of like-minded musicians for an evening of music at Metro Gallery (1700 N. Charles St., Baltimore, Md.) on Friday, April 7.
The dark electronic pioneers, active since 1999, have been going through a productive period recently, releasing fifth studio album When the Wolves Return, via Metropolis Records in 2015. Late last year, the band collected its The Compass EPs — South, West, North, and East — into a full-length release.
With their great dance melodies and the strong, unique voice of singer Donna Lynch, Ego Likeness are no strangers to DC, where they have been embraced throughout their career. Lots of fans particularly appreciate the title track to their fourth album, 2010’s Breedless.
