Oh yeah, it’s FREE
The connection between the bands playing this free Tuesday night show appears to be “music as assault.” There isn’t a single band in this lineup afraid to get ugly, whether it’s Mutating Meltdown’s anti-consumerist synth-organ squelch or ELVIS’ in-your-face apathy. Low Red Center and Coma In Algiers both take cues from proto-industrial alienators Cabaret Voltaire, and though Diagonals’ angular surf guitars and tuneful Farfisa leads might mark them as the odd band out, one look at the lyric sheet for “Neil Diamond Blues”—which details the Jewish Elvis’ preference to fuck, run, and leave the girl his “whole paycheck”—proves the band can offend with the best of ‘em.

“What better way to kick off our first tour than to anoint our bodies on a drippy dancefloor? And if the prospect of us scattering bubbles and glitter all over the east coast doesn’t tickle you, this night will double as the cd-release party for Archibald Adams (Jeremy of Fiction and Space Cave). To further amp up the situation, Pataphysics and Mos Jeficit will be on hand to make sure your feet know they have to move to the groove.” —- No Mas Bodas
