With Riot Fest 2013 coming up quickly, it's important to prepare to rock out along with your favorite bands, while looking stylish and risque. The Riot Fest 2013 lineup has been announced with acts from Blink-182, Fall Out Boy, Violent Femmes, Motörhead and Atmosphere, among other artists. The music festival will take place in September at Humboldt Park, so now is the perfect time to pick up a gritty sound piece and sample from the Riot Fest lineup.
Whether you're looking for something more sleek or formidable, personal sound technology has come a long way in keeping your ear drums happy. In the process, designers have added a risque flair to many of these headphones. If you feel like listening in peace, spiky eye-covering sound pieces will tell the world to leave you alone while you enjoy your beats. If you feel like being more social, hollowed-out headphones will let you share your music while still looking menacing.
