TOTD Tuesday Doubleday Vol. 4. I saw Fang Island last night and this El Paso based group was the opening act. I had never heard of them before but I was impressed beyond belief- these guys in a way stole the show. Fang Island definitely killed their set and I was floored that they sound just as good live as recorded, but this group came with an intense energy and enthusiasm. Four guys were all huddled up on stage- surrounding their bombastic and intensely talented drummer who seemed to be the nucleus of the group. (you can get a sense of this in the video below) They are purely an instrumental group but their songs, which get up in to the 5-7minute mark, all have many twists, turns, and various sections/melodies- enough to keep you engaged the whole time. Their sound seems to be equal parts prog, funk, hip hop, jazz, and a hint of metal which is extremely infecting. Get lost and enjoy!
