The Amherst trio had towers of amps stacked up all over the stage, including one that was pointed directly towards front man J Mascis, in case his monitors weren’t providing him enough of his own guitar sound.

Minneapolis’ The Plastic Constellations have received immense critical acclaim in recent years, including a recent mention on SPIN Online’s Band of the Day. Without knowing better, the band’s bio and interviews would leave you with a sinking feeling that this group of twenty somethings are nothing more than an American Sum 41 with tunes laced with tongue-in-cheek innuendo. Oh how wrong you’d be. While the birth of TPC came in 1995 as a way for some 14 year olds to come together and have fun making music, the group has blossomed into a solid musical assembly. Now seasoned, the band’s sound finds itself privileged by experience without the burden of sounding like an outdated version of its former self.
