Quantcast

HEALTH, Indian Jewelry, More [Show Preview]

Red 7 has booked a generous bill for this Saturday for any listener who loves their noise. Beginning at nine-thirty, we have Computer Jesus Refrigerator playing a short 15 minute set on the floor. The insane-sounding San Antonio band specialize in short, painful bursts of sound, created from drums, synths and odd, not easily-identifiable instruments. Our own Daniel Francis Doyle follows with a twenty minute set. What Doyle lacks in glitch or extreme sounds is more than made up for his one-man exuberance and unmistakable aesthetic.

Keeping the running time short, Gold Panda will follow with an almost-equally brief 30 minute set. An electronic musician from Essex, Gold Panda began doing remixes for the likes of HEALTH and Bloc Party, but has since struck out on his own and has a full-length planned for this year. Compared to the abrasive sounds planned for this evening, the relaxing grooves of Gold Panda act as some calm before the storm...

...that storm being Indian Jewelry followed by HEALTH, of course. Houston's Indian Jewelry just released the album Totaled, and after this show they have three performances planned with the unforgiving Lightening Bolt. And what of the main event, L.A.'s HEALTH? The group just released HEALTH::DISCO2, a remix album of songs from Get Color. The neon-loving noise group are about to embark on a tour of Europe, so this will be your last chance to see them for a bit.
