HOly shit! Polvo!! In my 'hood!!
I probably won't go to this thing but it basically happens all around my apt., so maybe if you see some dude with sideburns and a Scharpling Landscaping t-shirt skulking around and resenting all the drunk, coked up children in the street, that's me.
You have to see Crystal Antlers. No Age is the most famous, and I've heard like one song. I have no opinion about them at all. I've also seen Mika Miko and they're pretty run-of-the-mill noise punk by feminists. Their secret is that they're all kinda gnarly looking and punker-than-thou, but there's one member who's actually attractive. I think Glass Candy is some electro-damage nonsense, but I'm not sure. Abe Vigoda is pretty good. LIke solid indie rock, I thought. My friend likes Ladyhawk but I don't know them. Best Fwends is like some cutesy post-ween synth irony thing (name alone = red flags, although a friend of mine said I'd like them because I'm in a post-ween synth irony band myself).
Seriously, even though they have the ultimate in trendy cliche band names, Crystal Antlers is one of the best live shows i've seen in a very long time.
