Advice From Elsewhere

June 16, 2009

I don't live in Cville anymore, which means there is an excellent show this Thursday that I'll sadly be missing. Check it:

Thurs 06/18/09
Tea Bazaar
cover = a few bucks???
St. God's Hospital
Tereu Tereu (or official website, if you prefer)
Oblio

St. God's Hospital seemed to be on the up-and-up right before my departure from Cville. Oblio's songs are tuneful, with a massive guitar sound and an anthemic pop quality. The band that I'll really vouch for, though, is Tereu Tereu. I've caught them in Cville on a few occasions and, apart from being nice guys, they play songs that manage to be melodic, catchy, and rhythmically off-kilter. They reminded me of some of the later Dischord Records bands and a thus far cursory listen to their new album seems to see them deepening and extending those sonic kinships. Still ultra-underrated in Charlottesville as far as I can tell -- give em a shot!
