Prince Rama, Monster Island and Lord Scrummage at MOCAD
Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit
Dec. 14, 8 p.m.
Prince Rama is the musical duo of sisters Taraka and Nimai Larson. They have lived in ashrams, worked for utopian architects, written manifestos, delivered lectures from pools of fake blood, conducted group exorcisms disguised as VHS workouts, and have now finished inventing an apocalypse on which to base their new pseudo-compilation album, Top Ten Hits of the End of the World. Their last two records, Shadow Temple and Trust Now, peaked at numbers 3 and 6 on the Billboard New Age Charts, respectively.
Also appearing: Monster Island — that’s Cary Loren of Destroy All Monsters and friends — and Lord Scrummage.
Doors are 8 p.m. Admission is $10 for all ages.
