Right now, I need a little asskicking in my life. I am considering checking out a show next Wednesday at the Empty Bottle. Let me share with you a few tidbits about it and, hopefully, you will go as well.
First off, the band’s name is awesome. Pissed Jeans. Before you even hear the music, you already have an initial impression of what these guys are all about. Their sound is uncomfortable, dirty and infuriating like, well, wetting yourself. They are a foursome from Allentown, Pennsylvania who fill the void left by The Jesus Lizard for music that is the sonic equivalent of getting kicked in the face while some screams at you for scuffing his boots. Couple that with David Yow-like rants about the banality of everyday life and its annoyances and you have yourself a full evening.
Sound intriguing? Well, it does to me. Through their label website Sub Pop, they have some free downloads from their two full lengths: 2007’s Hope For Men and 2009’s King Of Jeans. Check it out and maybe I will see you there.
