What's in store

I was at Pressed Friday night for some post-punk action, with high-volume action from Dark Plains, WLMRT and Deathsticks. The latter two bands have a new split EP out (along with Nushu and Nughtbummerz) and were on a mini-tour. Dark Plains kicked things off with an ear-drum crushing set.

WLMRT put on a raucous set. I caught them at Ottawa Explosion last year; they were even more energetic this time around. Here's some bass action with Kat!

It's only been a few months since I saw Deathsticks at Black Squirrel Books. No lightbulb this time around, just some deadly punk sludge. Here's Matt!
