Protomartyr - Beerland, SXSW, Austin TX - March 15, 2014
[Detroit, MI] This band was on both of our lists, and
deservedly so. The show was kind of mellow but they’re the real deal – a band I
would actually listen to and so a top SXSW show. The lead singer was in a dumpy
suit and brought despair and death to mind. They’re clang guitars, quiet tribal
drums, well-paced flat vocals. A little atonal. I heard Hold Steady, Minor
Threat, Dinosaur Jr., Swans, and Red Lorry Yellow Lorry. Rockboy heard The Fall
and disagreed with every band I heard. My original description of this band was
apocalyptic folk punk which is just about right.
