Show Review: The Year Zero, I Heart Lung at The Prospector, Aug. 25, 2009
So, yeah. It's Tuesday night, a "school night", so-to-speak. Four bands (I think...) at The Prospector, and first band goes on at 11pm. Really? Maybe I'm just old, but that seems really late for the first act to go on.
In any case, first up with an acoustic set by The Year Zero, or rather two of them, Lili De La Mora and Rodney Sellars, playing a fantastic set of dream pop a la My Bloody Valentine and Go-Betweens. I was blown away. Great songs and harmonies. Can't wait to see them as a whole band.
Was late for this old guy, but I managed to sit though I Heart Lung's set. A two-piece consisting of drums and guitar. Good improve/experimental/jazz with some Sigur Ros-spaciness. Nice stuff.
I feel bad for not seeing the rest of the music, especially since the guy in the next band was wearing a Minutemen shirt, so I know they got good tastes, but I'd like to lobby venues around LBC to have their shows earlier for us day folks.
Ok, that's it, I'll keep it short.
