Control issues

There was a bunch of worthy shows to attend on Saturday night, but I decided to skip out on Simply Saucer at the Dom (no doubt a great show) for a couple of hours with some other space-travellers at Pressed. Pachyderm and Room Control came over from Montreal, while locals Clavius Control started things off with some fine Mono and Kinski-styled post-rock.Here's guitarist Neil and bassist Zachary!

Last time I saw Pachyderm was in July 2016, when they played a set at Birdman Sound to celebrate the store's 25th anniversary. Like Room control, they've got a lot of kosmik rock in their DNA. Here's drummer Nico!
