SCREEN VINYL IMAGE www.screenvinylimage.com (a psychotronic panorama of analog machine-laden psychedelia)
WE ARE HEX (indianapolis analog psych) www.myspace.com/wearehex
TEETHING VEILS (dark reverbed acoustics, mem. of the Antiques) www.myspace.com/teethingveils
This is the first-EVER D.C. show of the mighty We Are Hex. And the second-ever D.C. show of Screen Vinyl Image, who will likely shatter some glasses and maybe some glass in the name of unholy bomb-squad-meets-John-Carpenter rock 'n' roll. Teething Veils will have the reverb up to 10 and play songs that haven't been played before.
Just three bands with little changeover means you can still get home early for a monday.
Screen Vinyl Image's "The Midnight Sun" reviewed...
"Sometimes a sound, a groove, a beat, a rhythm, a crank and grind... just comes running at you like a Japanese bullet train in a hurry and on fire. It just plunges at you, layer after layer, and sits in your ears and demands to be put on repeat for days and days. You begin to see life as a 1967 test pattern on a B&W TV set (through a haze of cheap cigarette smoke). This is the case with the track below, the lead song from a new EP by the band Screen Vinyl Image (who are J. Sequential and Electra Blue). The sound is a disturbed landscape, an alien-infested and acid-tinged one, that takes you straight (backwards or forwards?) to a moment where kraut-rock makes love to the world and everyone, by troika-endorsed law, can only communicate in signs and symbols and must possess at least three LPs, each, by Can and Suicide (playing them backwards, in week-to-week cycles, whilst wearing VU dark sunglasses, a dangerous attitude and a wicked pout). This is my music of choice. I'm simply blown away. In fact, it's the best sound I've heard since playing this album for the first of many times. Live shows are forthcoming, check the links below. Happy Revolution Day, comrades."
