Snapshots: Monotonix @ the Mohawk

What can you say about Tel Aviv's Monotonix playing at Mohawk last night? It was a blur. Not just a blur of moments and drinks ordered between songs, but a blur of who was holding you up against the mass of dancing, shouting, screaming bodies who threw beer as if dollars had lost no cents, as if we weren’t in a financial crisis. And even if we were, at the end of the night they screamed "fuck you" as they stamped on Red River until ambulances shot down that long narrow road that leads to spaces that would quiver and die if an Israeli band brought their music our into the streets for 500+ to smash and bang and wail against all odds. -Austinist staff photographer Nash Cook
