Last night was fun! I got to the show in time to catch Koev Halev, who impressed me with their particular brand of post-punk. This was only their second show, and I expect them to be a fun band to catch over the years. My favorite part was that the band all looked like goths from the 1980s. The next group was Wipeout. They sucked big time. I left in the middle of their first song and sat in my car listening to the new Trapped Under Ice until they were finished. They were very amateurish sounding; with a singer/guitarist who was not good at doing either, and the rest of the music was from a computer, by someone who seemingly had zero knowledge of music production. It was a mess. RIYL crap. The last band of the night, Boy Harsher, were a real treat. I love their minimal electronic compositions and female vocals. The singer was fun to watch; she had a rack effects unit that she manipulated through their set, often changing effects on her voice several times each song. All in all, a great night. Thanks to Savage Party for booking it, Metro Gallery for hosting it, and everyone who came out and had a great time on a Sunday night!
