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. And not having enough sound has never really been a problem for the group, and it certainly wasn’t on this evening as the band tore through a fiery 90 minute set that spanned the band’s entire career.

Post Punk Logistics: Twinkranes

Forming in 2004 the trio of Twinkranes (aka T. Krane, The Rooster and Dr. Raymond Crane) spent its first two years together establishing the band’s musical focus and creating a number of visual pieces which would later accompany the group’s live performances in the form of an electronic slide show. After playing a list of scattered dates across both America and Europe the band recently released its “Being Kong” single which sounds much like a whispered commentary on updated post-punk logistics. The track’s guitar brings about indie delusions of what The Edge could have been if he hadn’t joined U2 or stuck with that silly name (though he would have probably ended up that way no matter which path he followed). The b-side, “Witch Hunt,” delivers a synthly blessed track based with the vocals hinting at a muted Ian Brown (though my ears could be way off base with that one).
