An incredible NYC band that never got their due. Some of their story has been told in Meet Me In The Bathroom, but watching this live performance really shows how white-hot and chaotic they were. This is one of the last gigs they played before they broke up, and it’s like watching a star supernova. Stewart Lupton is obviously amazing, but Paul Maroons guitar playing in particular is so underrated, like Rowland S. Howard meets Ennio Morricone meets Ron Ashton. He’s also a Gretsch player which I respect.
i saw them last week and it was mind-blowing showmanship teetering performance art. also jorge elbretch joined in on guitar which ruled. thick crazy bass & big vocals - blends 80s sounds of siouxsie and the banshees, yello, and gang of four
Saw them in Auckland last night and they were amazing. Big sound, big emotions. It’s optimism for nihilists and I loved it. (Plus they’re really nice guys).
these two sentences hit me harder than I ever expected How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives. What we do with this hour, and that one, is what we are doing.
