On Friday, July 19th, we will be providing local support for oOoOO at Empire Control Room in Austin. We are very excited about this show for at least three reasons.
The first being that the new oOoOO album, Without Your Love, is one of our favorites of 2013; along with the new albums from Tricky and Feathers. Without abandoning the dark atmospheres of the previous EPs, oOoOO has managed to polish his sound into something more accessible. These songs are what radio friendly modern pop music might sound like if it weren’t for the decaying corpse of the old world record industry still interfering.
The second reason being that we had to audition. It seems like bands auditioning for a show is a thing of music business history and it would have been easy enough to have a bad attitude and refuse but we stand behind what we do, it means a lot to us, and therefore, why not take the opportunity to set up and play a short set (and in this case, an encore that lasted longer than our intended set). Our thanks to everyone involved. It was fun!
And the third reason… well, thats maybe easier teased.
We play first at 9; followed by our friends, Knifight, and Night Drive. Tickets are available here.
