 Coolness: 75660 | Actually... the first band on was The Oath... I thought they were one of the worst bands I'd seen in a long time - until Your Enemies Friend came on... they were, in fact, the worst band I've seen in at least a decade.
"We're from Los Angeles and I have a new wave haircut. We've got a girl who plays keyboards. No, really... we do. We'll make sure her keyboards are very loud... that way everyone will be sure to notice them. Keyboards in rock bands are so hip right now. We're so hip. Look at my HAIR!" That band needs to get beat up. I was seriously starting to think that no show could possibly be worth enduring their crappier than crap set when, miraculously, their asstasticness came to a glorious finish. The Locust were incredible. Beats coming down like a rain of insects. Sound and noise and chaos swarming into your ears and your eyes and your nose. Invading your existence. I smiled as the guy in front of me clapped his hands over his ears near the end of their set. I smiled harded when I noticed he was wearing a Merzbow shirt. I hate referencing other bands - but I couldn't help but think of The Residents and Torture Garden... some kind of blastbeat laden take on The Commercial Album spawned in another dimension. As I said - I loved it. Dillenger Escape Plan seemed anti-climactic. They're an incredible band. What I saw of their set was really tight - but after the chaos of The Locust they seemed rather conventional. I stuck around for about six tracks and then went home - exhausted and satisfied. |
