The Underground Stage
“I don’t know what Amends have been lifting but tonight’s set is a notch more muscular than ever. Full (not secret) disclosure: I come to any Amends show already thinking they’re one of the best bands in the country, but jeepers… this set’s off the chart, even from that base.” Gallery Learn More Facebook | […]
“Glitch Kingdom burst off the stage from the start, with neither guitar cables nor gravity holding them down. They set a blistering, exhausting pace, songs exploding out of them, out of control. As they roam the stage and the floor, it’s hard not to feel that way too.” Gallery Learn More Instagram | TikTok
“The Terrys take the pace down on their latest, a mission statement of sorts for dreamers everywhere. It’s as much a reflection on where they’ve come from as much as it is a defiant commitment to the future – more power to them, and to everyone who dreams loud and large 💭”
“A fearsome mass moving at a terrifying speed, this track – and the rest of the debut album that follows it – makes you feel tiny in comparison. Like watching a freight train with no brakes careening down a hill, it’s terrifying in its rage and power, and impossible to not feel the noise, right down in your core 🚂”
“C.O.F.F.I.N’s primal roar always raises both hackles and pulse rates, and their latest is as powerful and aggressive as ever, stripping out the superficial, leaving only the vital and the necessary. Just. Let. Go. ✂️”
“As delicate and air-light as Sesame Girl’s latest is, it’s a lyrical shiv aimed at the men of the meat markets. It’s a truly glorious slice of fuzzy guitars and melody that hides boiling fury and contempt, a gentle wave of the hand with a blade up its sleeve 🔪”
“Wearied but determined, Royal Chant’s latest still takes one step after another, somehow finding the strength to raise its head and scream at the skies. It sounds like it’s had a rough run – but it’s still got one hell of a night out left in it 🚶♂️”
“WILSN’s set is basically made of moments that make you go “holy shit!” The songs? Holy shit! The band? Holy shit! The voice? Holy sweet creeping shit what the hell! Flawless, next level, and outrageous, this is a set that makes you want to grab the closest person in your life and dance, dance until […]
“Edith’s set both rings off the roof and reaches out deep, a festival of glorious pop crashing into a gathering of the most emotional of guitar songs. Little to nothing wrong with a single note.” Gallery Learn More Instagram | TikTok
