Live reviews
Nothing is a grunge outfit that have been doing what they do for about ten years, and they’re still doing it to this day. It shows that there are surprisingly some true grunge fans about. It’s cool how they’ve managed to make such an impression enough to release a handful of albums out of what they do. Their genre is definitely that of the drone rock variety, with some very dreary lyrics and sustained vocals. They’re pretty sloppy live and don’t play very well together but hey, that might just be what you’re into. If it is, then go and see Nothing. Their song “Dig” is their biggest song that they perform, doused in distortion making this performance get lost behind the gain of guitar amps and the crashing cymbals that sound like they’re hit for the sake of it. They have a good energy when they play live and a pretty cool vibe about them, but they play so terribly together as a band. Of course. That might be your thing, so go along and check em out.
Having lost their frontman somewhere along the way on what sounded like a harrowing tour so far, the three remaining band members still managed to produce a sound that stood firm as a rock. If this band, between consuming a bottle of Jameson on stage or dwelling on the darkers aspects of their lives, manages to avoid self-destruction - it is destined for greatness. They were welcomed in Brisbane's Crowbar, but I'm unsure whether they felt it or whether the crowd just looked like a cruel joke from the bottom of their swirling vortex. Brandon Setta, clearly not at ease with the position of frontman forced upon him, wondered aloud why the crowd was so quiet, failing to recognize that people just wanted more of that good, good Nothing.
Their shows have so much energy; you might think that a shoegaze band would play a slow song sometimes but these guys never do. They put so much of themselves into their writing and performing and it shows! They're energetic and enthusiastic and genuinely like each other even if they wouldn't admit it. Their voices blend really well together and the harmonies just reel you in. Kyle's drumming stays aggressive the whole time; he never takes a break! Nicky climbed to the second floor over a railing to get to a good friend which was the best part. He stayed there and finished out the set from the 2nd story! I'm still psyched over this show. Have all the funs Boston!
The show was fantastic! Aaron Heard played bass for this tour. They played in their hometown tonight and the energy was so fantastic. Their harmonies were spot on as always, and Kyle's drumming had so much air! Faber Liquors made donations for a fundraiser that they held for a new nonprofit founded by singer Nicky Palermo, called Belly of the Beats. A representative from the Pennsylvania Prison Society, the beneficiary of the donations, was there representing. Nicky pounded a guitar to smithereens and surfed the happy crowd who placed him gently back onstage. It was a satisfying near-end to their US tour!
NOTHING - a band that lives up to their name. After a wealth of feedback and noise the band tried to get their volumes together to no avail. After about 5 songs they gave up. Leaving the guitars to feedback and ruin my eardrums. I was so hoping to like these guys.
CEREMONY - surprisingly great sound. Great punk vibe. Heavy thrashing sound combined with surf guitar and a joy division drone. Very cool.
Awful. I don't even recall any music, just the frontman stumbling around and slurring to some people in the front row. I get sex, drugs, and rock n roll, but if I am shelling out cash at least have some modicum of composure.
Very good show...the lead guitarist was amazing. The crowd was energetic.venue was great.glad a smoke machine was NOT used. Vocals were nice. More seating would be nice. Overall very entertaining
