Mac Sabbath Turns Up the Heat in Birmingham

From the outside, Workplay in downtown Birmingham doesn’t really look like the type of place to host a metal show. The space is a multi-use event center, containing ,among other things, office spaces and a coffee shop; however, go inside and you’ll find a concert hall that’s the right level of grimy for a band like Mac Sabbath. Mac Sabbath, for those unfamiliar, describe themselves as “drive-thru metal”, playing Black Sabbath covers with lyrics changed to be exclusively about fast food. It’s as ridiculous as it sounds, but it makes for an incredibly fun show. With support from Alyson Anomaly (a project by Flummox frontwoman Alyson Blake Dellinger) and Clownvis (who will be described in detail later), the show was nothing if not memorable.

The Sweetest Tradition Every Old-House Owner Should Start

Old houses famously come with plenty of quirks: floors that creak and ceilings that slope; layouts that weren’t necessarily designed for how we live now; and wiring that could make an electrician cuss. But for all those minor inconveniences, there’s a depth of character that’s hard to replicate in something new. When Mazie Bryant began house-hunting for her first home in Birmingham, Alabama, this kind of soulfulness ranked at the top of her wishlist. “I really wanted something with a little more historic charm that I could put some energy and effort into maintaining and being a part of its history,” she says. This year, that means throwing a party to honor its 100th birthday.
