Saw these guys last night. On record, as you can hear from the clip I'm
attaching, they sound pretty "dirty New Order tinged with some My Bloody Valentine sneaker-study." Truth of truths, not totally my thing, but the lady-more-than-a-friend loves that sorta stuff, so I took her to the show. And wow! Just an incredibly heavy, high-energy show that transformed the album's safe grooves into menacing snarls that very well might eat you but fuck it, what a way to go! To wit: Eyeballs were melted (and the bassist left the stage bleeding profusely from a poorly choreographed instrument exchange head wound -- a la Iggy Pop/Krist Novoselic).
