This Evening: Glorious Noise
>>> Philadelphia’s got nothing but noise for you tonight. Oh, but what a noise it is: It is a deepy, heady sludge — marked by passages of unbearable lightness and relief — aged in the fine basement showplay and abstract truth of no less than two decades of Philly underground music. What am I going on about? New-ish Siltbreeze Records signing U.S. Girls, of course (pictured), who just might be the one-girl-group answer begged by the one-boy-group question that is that Wavves band. Also on the bill: Niagara Falls, whose tripppppppppy new album you may also want to dig if this is your thing, These Are Powers and Andy Giles. All at 8pm, all ages, at The Marvelous in West Philly.

Been grooving to the Niagara Falls album while driving in the back trails of ye olde pines by my lonesome. Thanks, Norm.
