This band seriously did not disappoint. While only performing a shorter twelve-song this band had the entire room moving and in the moment from the first few bars played. The mood and the lighting for the evening were some of the best that I had seen at a live performance. Not to mention the high energy and the entire band’s enthusiasm for what they are doing. Several times during the show, they stopped and had humorous moments and stories to share with everyone. It’s always great to see a band that truly loves what they are doing perform. Highly danceable chaotic grooves. Upon getting onto the stage at a sold-out show at The Blue Room for Third Man Records, they have that raw early day post-punk and Industrial energy that you would find in Wax Trax releases, and the stage performance of absolute showmen. Within the first few minutes, lead singer Cole Haden was already in the crowd hyping everyone up to get fully moving. They played a spread of tracks off of their new release and prior albums to round out the overall flow and mood of the evening. “Cinderella” was the high point track of the evening for me. I had been a fan for a while, but I never had the opportunity to see them perform live. This performance more than exceeded what I was hoping for with a live performance from them.

Everyone was ecstatic leaving this show and thoroughly sweaty from dancing and grooving. I was so stoked from this evening and seeing just how amazing they were in performance, I knew I would absolutely go out of my way to see them again. Given how energetic and skilled they were on stage with their performance, I expect larger venues and tours on their horizon. Highly recommended for any fan of Noise Rock, Post-Punk, early Industrial, and really anything with a chaotically infectious groove.
