Never have I ever been so tired at a show before. I had been a little sick the night before and didn’t sleep much. As a result I literally could not keep my eyes open for Blank Dogs, so I unfortunately have absolutely no review of his set. However, you can go check out a whole bunch of photos at the most excellent Impose magazine right here! There were a whole bunch of sound problems and the first band didn’t even get to play. Wild Nothing seemed sort of nervous and freaked out and were a little boring to watch, but the songs sounded good.
The surprise of the night were the UK’s Wetdog. They sound like a slightly less musically intelligent, slightly more punk Micachu & The Shapes. Obviously, I totally dug them. Their songs rely on bass riffs, which gives them a heavy, unique sound, while their voices carry them in occasionally shrieky blips and swells. I can see how some people would find this band annoying, but I thought they were refreshing and absolutely loved them. They also seemed like totally weird, charming people, which made me like them even more. Please check out the song below.
