Title: the Metal Hearts
Post by: sonickteam2 on March 02, 2006, 10:51:00 am

did anyone catch them at the Black Cat last night?  
 
   anyone listen to them?  seen them live at all?
 
  I am thinking of going to check em out at the Talking Head tonight, wondering if anyone had any input.
 
 merci.

I caught the very short (30 min) set and was impressed. They have added a live drummer and that made the sound a little less rigid (not a good thing, in my view), but the songs are still pretty unique---Arab Strap-ish minimal with a jittery, fingerpicked electric guitars. They didn't seem too into it onstage, which may be a product of them not having played too many shows?  though there were prob. 30+ people there, not bad for the Backstage. Who are they playing with?
