Loving Thunder played a show at that Witchdome basement this summer, and it was incredibly fun and sounding awesome for the first two songs before the cops shut it down. That was the ill-fated night of broken glass and crazy neighbors. Well, this band featuring ex-dudes from Area 51 and Death Wish Kids will be back to rock it with their split 7"-mates from Philly, Mountain High. This is definitely gonna be the wildest-rockin' show on the Luigi's stage for the rest of the year, I do believe! Any fan of AC/DC might be prone to receive these bands' message.
Kicking off the show will be the outstanding Davis garage/indie/psych revelation known as the San Francisco Water Cooler. Their "Rocker's Escape" from their self-titled LP from last year on the KDVS Recordings label is a pinnacle of achievement which shall be remembered as a highlight of this current halcyon age of "weirdpunk" and "shitgaze" or "the new lo-fi" or whatever the media decides to settle on calling this. Fans of Dinosaur Jr. will hear some familiar echoes in the ethers of brilliant New Zealand/Flying Nun-style stuff. This is definitely one of the very best and most distinctive local bands in this area.
