Could have been the sound system, but they sounded so sloppy and out of tune with each other. Her vocals were pretty awful too. I think they're so much better on record.
I'll probably still check it out since I'll be hanging out downstairs of the venue all night anyway, but that's a bummer
Hopefully it was just an off night for me. I feel especially bitter because I was super excited, but the majority of the crowd was into it. The opener was cool though. Like a slacker version of Adam's Tigers Jaw songs but with trumpet.
Can confirm they didn't sound great. Her delivery on some of the songs was really great like when she was screaming, but a lot of the times she was just mumbling and not really getting the delivery right on the songs. The band also didn't really seem to be playing that well either. Definitely better on record but I can see them tightening up as well. I'll give it another chance. The whole time I was watching them I was just thinking of how awesome it would be if they toured with PWR BTTM this year
noticed today that this record pairs really well with Old World Underground era Metric, some of the synth lines sound so similar. nurse ratched is starting to stand out as my favorite now but i really like the whole thing front to back
Ehh, more Slothrust-y. I guess the opener was just very Warpaint-inspired to me. There's hints of it, but I overstated a bit
