Taxidermists, Jo Passed (Montreal) and Cove Sauce @ Zuzu…*A Rad Castle and Boston Hassle Joint Effort*

Mon, Apr 18 2016 9:00 pm - 11:55 pm

$5 – $10

Monday Madness at Zuzu! Mass rockers TAXIDERMISTS are music for a melancholy day where you reminisce on all the mistakes you made, not the big ones, everything really turned out okay, but you’re still a wee bit melancholy, so what do you listen to? Put on their September release “Honesty Box” and lie back to reminisce. What starts out as straightforward garage-rock soon shifts into a play on classic light-and-shade dynamics, alternating sludgey and crystal-clear guitars intertwining with yelped, world-weary vocals. Check out “Big Enough for the Truth”, a tender, lovely moment of a song that lulls you into a peaceful state before jarring you right back into wakefulness with perfectly-timed moments of dissonance. Vancouverite Joseph Hirabayashi is in the house with his project JO PASSED. The release “Out” features baroque noise-pop that sounds a bit like having an out-of-body experience on a honky-tonk bar in space that is rapidly hurtling towards the sun. Soft, ghostly vocals float above squalling guitars and thundering metalhead bass, all contained by a strong sense of melody and composition. Check out album standout “Lego My Ego” so you can try to sing along at the show – or at least air-bass. Rounding out the bill is COVE SAUCE, delicious tartar-flavored beer-battered goodness. Discover their deep-sea mystery and join us at ZUZU tonight at 9 p.m. $5, 21+. This is a BOSTON HASSLE and RAD CASTLE joint effort – you don’t want to miss it!
