Shellac + New Year: Awesomeness or Meh?
karl gambolputty...:
So I just bought me a ticket to see The New Year and Shellac play in June, and I'm pretty excited. I'm a disgusting Kadane-brothers-fanboy, and Steve Albini is... Steve Albini. Problem is, not only have I never seen either of them live, I've heard maybe 4 songs by Shellac. So, I'd rather my bubble be burst now than at the show. Any opinions?
Fortnight:
The first time I ever heard about Shellac (or Steve Albini) was when a friend took me to see a show. And thus I was converted. Not only do they put on a great show, but they have a ritual Q&A! Just watch you don't ask anything too goofy, or you'll get the Bob Weston Death Stare.
As for New Year, I am having no ideas mang.
karl gambolputty...:
Yeah, I'd be way too intimidated to ask them anything, so I'm prolly safe from the Death Stare
jeph:
Shellac are amazing live. I haven't heard any of the New Year's stuff, but their name is kind of sucky.
karl gambolputty...:
They are significantly more awesome than their unfortunate name would suggest. They sort of sound like a very loud Yo La Tengo.
