Country
Teasers, Young People, Magik Markers, Lambsbread, S-S-S-Spectres
- Syrup Room
Once
again New York Night Train recommends Country
Teasers. See last
night’s preview to learn why. Tonight they’ll
be on an amazing Todd
P bill at Bushwick’s Syrup Room. Young
People are a LA duo on Too Pure who play spacious elegant
songs that range from quiet to quaking. The
Magik Markers are one of the more exciting bands of
the last couple of years - a wild ear-splitting no-wavy trio who,
in addition to all kinds of high profile touring with the likes
of Sonic Youth and Dinosaur, have left a cryptic slime trail of
CDRs, cassettes, and vinyl across the indie landscape. I’m
not so familiar with Lambs Bread who apparently play noisy free
rock. But I do know the S-S-S-Spectres
are one of the town’s more under-rated bands – featuring
two former fixtures of the Austin underground, SSSS conjure up unique
angular weirdness that you would merely call post-punk if they didn’t
have so much character and originality.
