Cold Waves X (Front 242, Nitzer Ebb) comes to The Mayan in Los Angeles this week

Cold Waves will continue their 10th anniversary celebration in Los Angeles this week, and fans of industrial, EBM, and synthpop are ready to check out their favorite acts.

Cold Waves X will take place on Thursday, September 29 and Friday, September 30 inside The Mayan. This year’s event will feature a stacked lineup on each night. On Thursday, headlining act Front 242 will perform in the area for their final North American tour. Front 242 will be joined by Xeno & Oaklander, Actors, Kite, and Leathers. On Friday, Nitzer Ebb, who recently played with Nine Inch Nails and Ministry, will headline. They’ll be joined by The Revolting Corpse, High Functioning Flesh, Rein, and Spike Hellis.

For both nights, DJs ANDI (Synthicide) and G•S•E•D (La Sombra) will spin throughout the evening. Doors for both nights will open at 7 p.m. Single-day and two-day tickets are on sale to the general public here. The Mayan is located on 1038 S Hill Street.
