ESKIMEAUX is pretty amazing. I saw them play here on Saturday. I’d call them “shoegaze”, but if you don’t like shoegaze or don’t really know what shoegaze is, what would that do? They’re great! Just listen to them!
Genre classification, order, and differentiated anarchy: I believe all genre classification constitutes a deductive negativity antithetical to the project of making art. This is from a performance by the band Torchbearer at ABC No Rio, a wonderful art and activist space on Manhattan’s east side. I guess they’re, um, hardcore? Or something? I thought they were hardcore awesome. In the past twenty-four hours, I have seen a number of different musical acts. More to come.
