(Formerly known as Jaxx). Yes, this is a heavy metal club, with acres of spandex and guitar poses not seen since Behind the Music profiled Poison.

Our Review

Once a movie theater in a Northern Virginia shopping plaza, Jaxx is the place for loud, hard rock: American and Euro metal, death metal, speed metal, punk and pretty-boy hair bands, even Southern rock. This is meat without potatoes, with appropriately massive sound and light systems. There's a dance/bounce-around floor and a raised mezzanine for better viewing. The club also has the most colorful and entertaining Web site of any local venue. Check out the site's "Calendar" page.
