The Biblical story of Jonah and the Whale is an allegory about forgiveness and mercy. The overarching narrative of Denver duo In the Whale is power, wrath and good old-fashioned rock & roll. Guitarist Nate Valdez and drummer Eric Riley craft bare-bones hard rock songs about living fast and free. Their 2016 EP, Quicksand, is a propulsive five-song set that rumbles in at just over 13 minutes. Only two songs crack the three-minute mark. In the Whale come to San Jose on the cusp of releasing yet another EP—their six-song Dopamine is due to drop Aug. 3.
