JAILL/ NIGEL & THE DROPOUT/ THE BEEKEEPERS @ UFO FACTORY 11/6
Jaill (Sub Pop)- Jaill is a lot like other bands; they've slept on your floor, you've made fun of their pillow cases, they're not nearly as good at Excitebike as they said they were and although they all say they're cool with cats, no one's excited about sleeping at the cat house. So it should come as no surprise that, as bands sometimes do, they've made a new record. And that record is Traps, their second for Sub Pop, but first to adopt the bold new marketing strategy of giving away a free pair of Nike cross-trainers to anyone who steals it on the internet. Take that, Radiohead. So, but, what is Traps? And what about it can best fill five paragraphs? Traps is pretty, it's moody, it pops. It has the scrappy, vengeful enthusiasm of a puppy stuck under a blanket. It's an adorably grumpy bear just awoken from his long winter's slumber, with a mangy heart rarely found outside of the stuffed animal bin of a Salvation Army. It's an album that expects to be taken seriously goddammit, even though it just puked on the bar.
Nigel & the Dropout- The Detroit based two piece looped themselves into a spacious soundscape filled with soaring guitars clash and heavily chopped samples, hard hitting percussion, ambient synth and layered vocal harmonies.
A nightmare of tangled cables and dazzling lights illuminate a performance void of the inhuman laptop automation and sequencing seen far too often today.
The recording/mixing/mastering, every instrument, every voice, album art, lights, in our recordings and live performance/music videos; everything you see and hear - we do. DOWNLOAD IT ALL FOR FREE: nigelthedropout.bandcamp.com soundcloud.com/nigel-and-the-dropout
