Doe Paoro: May 14, 2013 Glasslands – FLAC/MP3/Streaming

We first caught Doe Paoro a year ago at Cameo Gallery, and she wowed us with her sincerity and her unique approach to pop music. Taking the stage at Glasslands, nominally as a support act but as the one with the largest crowd by far, Doe Paoro, showed added poise in her live performance and some subtle refinements to her sound. She also had two songs, “See Me Now” and “New Lows”, to share from a new 7″ release. Boasting a completely new look from last year’s more 90s-inspired digs, Sonia (her real name) came across as a more mature but equally strong performer, continuing to meld vocals that draw from a number of singing traditions with arrangements that draw from reggae, R&B, pop and rock. Along with her bouncier numbers like “Born Whole” and “I’ll Go Blind”, Sonia’s ballads shouldn’t be ignored, either. Both “New Lows”, the new song, and “Live Again” were particularly strong. We look forward to seeing what Sonia will do next.

I recorded this set with the installed Glasslands rig, combining the Naiant  X-R cardiod microphones with a soundboard feed by the Glasslands engineer Chris. To minimize distractions during the quieter songs, the recording favors the soundboard feed. Enjoy!

Grandchildren: May 15, 2013 Glasslands – FLAC/MP3/Streaming Full Show

Grandchildren is hardly the only criminally underrated band out of Philadelphia right now (we’ve written about several of them) but they are one of the most compelling. This band has mastered the art of dense, lushly orchestrated rock music with a modern electronic twist — exactly the kind of current sound that screams for a wider audience. Here at Glasslands to celebrate the release of their third LP, Golden Age, the band showed the maturity, poise and musical prowess we first saw in them back in 2009, this time backed by their strongest and most consistent material of their career. Picking a “highlight track” for this show was almost impossible, as Golden Age serves up one good song after another, and the band has worked hard to make the big arrangements come across live. Songs like “No Way Out” excellently demonstrate the band’s refinement of their sound and their ability to write songs that can appeal across genres and generations of fans.

I recorded this set with Naiant X-X omnidirectional mics at the stage lip, plus the Naiant X-R house mics and a soundboard feed from the night’s hardworking engineer Jeremy. The sound quality is outstanding, and we are so pleased with it we are offering the entire set streaming below in addition to MP3 and FLAC downloads. Enjoy!

Rathborne: May 14, 2013 Glasslands – FLAC/MP3/Streaming

Luke Rathborne is young, has an LP and two EPs under his belt, and he’s just getting started. Rathborne’s 2011 record, After Dark, was recorded when he was a young man of 17; he came here at 18. We found him at Glasslands less than two years later celebrating the release of a new album, SOFT, that refines the sound of those rawer earlier experiments. Styling the performing band simply Rathborne, the group took the stage and kicked off the Replacements-esque “Wanna Be You” without a second’s hesitation. Rathborne is a natural presence onstage, with a refreshing kindness and innocence to go with his rock poise. He may not have even been born then, but Rathborne is clearly a student of the 80s, particularly New Wave acts like the Cars. Most of the songs played clocked in under three minutes and exuded fresh energy. Rathborne closed the set with “So Long NYC”, about the all-too-common story of your dreams washing out. But for Luke Rathborne, his own dreams are very much alive.

I recorded this set with our Glasslands house setup, including Naiant microphones and a mix provided by house engineer Chris. The sound is excellent. Enjoy!

Night Beats: May 8, 2013 Glasslands – FLAC/MP3/Streaming

[Photos by acidjack – the band and recording are much better than these photos]

Last time we saw Seattle’s Night Beats they blew us away with their energy and ability to delivery a set of straight-ahead garage rock full of songs you’d remember the next day. This show at Glasslands found them in the familiar spot of opening for another critically acclaimed band — in this case, Iceland’s Dead Skeletons — and Night Beats gave a performance that was every bit the equal of their earlier headlining set at the Knit. Even more special this time around, the band played almost entirely new material from their next record on Trouble In Mind, which drops in August. The band is not ready to share the titles of them yet, but it’s safe to say that if you dig their first LP and EP, the new songs will make you happy. The new material features some excellent guitar work at points, including some pretty serious shredding during the second of the new numbers. Keep an eye out in the coming months for more info on the new album.

I recorded this set with the Naiant X-R microphones mounted in the venue plus a soundboard feed from Jeremy, the night’s engineer. The sound is excellent. Enjoy!

Lady Lamb the Beekeeper: May 11, 2013 Glasslands – Flac/MP3/Streaming

May 13, 2013

It was three years ago that we saw what I believe to have been one of the first Lady Lamb the Beekeeper shows in New York, a solo set at the opening night of the Rock Shop. That was back in the days when Skippy was still in NYC and billed a show for the ages that night — Sharon Van Etten and TuneYards headlined the bill. Aly Spaltro was still a teenager at that point, but it was obvious that she was abundantly talented with unlimited potential. She was signed to Bada Bing Records, and after several self-released albums, the first proper Lady Lamb album came out this year. Ripely Pine is a superb album that highlights Aly’s strengths — emotional vocals, intimate songwriting and aggressive musicianship. This is also an album that will profile her talents to a much wider audience. We saw the beginnings of that at a packed Glasslands on Saturday night. While the front half of the crowd consisted of fan-boys and fan-girls who seemed to know all the words to the songs, the back half of the crowd contained those “here to be seen” types who are both a blessing and a curse to an artist — more ticket sales but less attention. Aly’s set consisted of much of Ripely Pine and a few older songs. We were particularly impressed with “Bird Balloons” which opened the set with a fury that never let up. Lady Lamb continues the tour on the East Coast before heading to Europe in the end of May.

I recorded this set in our usual manner in this venue, with the mounted Naiant cards matrixed with an excellent board feed mixed by Glasslands excellent house FOH Josh. The packed Saturday night crowd presented some challenges as the din of chatter is present at quiet moments. We were also visited by persistent thumps from the DJ at 285 next door. Otherwise the sound quality is excellent, and with those caveats, enjoy!

Disappears: April 25, 2013 Knitting Factory – FLAC/MP3/Streaming

Chicago’s Disappears distinguish themselves by being both consistent and prolific. Since their 2010 full-length debut, Lux, they’ve cranked out one consistent release after another, from 2011’s Guider EP to 2012’s Pre-Language plus a live album. This year has already seen two more releases, the 12″ EP Kone and single-sided and limited 12″ EP A New House In A New Town. Each of these releases has offered incremental refinements to their dark post-punk sound. This show at the Knitting Factory Brooklyn was my first time seeing  Kone done live, and the title song and its b-side “Kontakt” offer some clues as to where the band’s sound is heading. Both those songs represent longer-form compositions than the tightly-paced stuff from Pre Language, but the new style works for the band, broadening their palette a bit. But fear not, this set still featured several of the band’s floor-fillers, including the one-two punch of “Replicate” and “Pre Language early in the set. There were also a handful of songs I could not identify that I believe were either new or from the A New House In A New Town EP, but any more information would be appreciated. The band also played three new songs — “Girl”, “Power” and “Elite Typical” — from their forthcoming new LP, expected late this summer. Thanks to Disappears for clearing that up, and here’s to that new record!

I recorded this set with MBHO KA200N cardiod microphones and an excellent soundboard feed of the house mix by the Knit engineer Rob and Disappears’ traveling FOH. The sound quality is excellent. Enjoy!

Spacin’: April 4, 2013 285 Kent – Flac/MP3/Streaming

SPACIN
[uncredited photo from last.fm – will credit if info provided]

The band Spacin’ began as the solo project of Jason Killinger, who was also a member of Birds of Maya. Philadelphia has produced a plethora of superb gargage-influenced music over the last several years and Killinger’s contribution is no less impressive than others such as Kurt Vile, The War on Drugs, and Purling Hiss. In fact, Killinger teamed with Purling Hiss’ Mike Polizze in Birds of Maya, and their solo bands just completed a tour together. On Thursday last, we caught Spacin’ opening for the Hiss at 285 Kent and their set, although short in song titles and total time was a superb neo-psych/garage workout which included a couple of numbers from their debut album Deep Thuds, a couple of apparent new songs, and a killer cover the the MC5’s “American Ruse” (streaming below). Now that Spacin’ is on our radar, we won’t miss their NYC shows.

This set was recorded in the same manner as the Purling Hiss set and the sound is excellent. Enjoy!

Little is known to date about the Brooklyn band Zoned Out, though they have quietly been building a following around town. Featuring current and former members of La Otracina, Grateful Dead cover band Dead Tape, Titan, Polygamist and Mirror Queen, they serve up deep multi-part psych meditations grounded in the rock aesthetic. For this Union Pool show, the band played under the swirling light show of Planetary Projections, adding to the otherworldly vibe of the night. Expect to see a new album from these guys, as well as more Brooklyn dates, soon.

I recorded this set with Schoeps MK5 cardiod microphones from our usual position in the venue, along with an excellent soundboard feed from the house engineer, Patrick. The sound is excellent.  Enjoy!

Purling Hiss: April 4, 2013 285 Kent – Flac/MP3/Streaming

When we broke the news back in November that Purling Hiss had signed to Drag City Records and that their new album would be released in March, it was one of those well-deserved jumps in stature that we love to see for the bands that we’ve championed here on NYCTaper. Now that their new album Water On Mars has been released to universally positive reviews, its also good to see that the band are still the same humble guys we met for the first time several years ago. At 285 on Thursday, the merch table was moved to the DJ table where we record the shows, and so we were by default the band’s unofficial merch guy when they were on stage. But afterwards while breaking down my equipment, it was refreshing to see up close Mike Polizze’s natural and sincere interactions with the long line of fans waiting to buy the album. In these days when the quality of fan relationships are almost as crucial to a band’s success as the quality of the music, its good to know that Purling Hiss is ahead of the game in both respects. The band’s set was almost entirely Mars material played with ferocity and among the many highlights, we’re streaming “Don’t Even Try It”. Purling Hiss will continue to tour the midwest for the next couple of weeks before spending May in Europe. The tour dates are on their Drag City Records artist page.

I recorded this set with the wide diaphragm Neumann TLM 102 microphones mounted on the pole 10 feet from the stage and mixed with a vocal-heavy board feed. The sound quality is excellent, enjoy!

[Photos by acidjack]

Sky Picnic is the psych-driven rock band fronted by guitarist/vocalist Chris Sherman and bassist Leah Cinnamon, who on this night were joined by drummer Russell Wahlquist, who did an admirable job filling in for band regular Pete Meriwether.  This Union Pool show was made extra memorable by the liquid light show of Planetary Projections, who coated what is usually a drably lit shade with intense swirls of color.  Sky Picnic play a more vocal-driven brand of psychedelic rock, as well as using tighter arrangements on certain songs in addition to the typical sprawling songs typical of the style. The result is a slightly more pop-driven sound with songs that have more individual character than those of some of their contemporaries. This set consisted mostly of songs from their Paint Me A Dream LP, plus a longer, older number called “Universal Mind Decoder”.  Paint Me A Dream is still available in limited quantities on vinyl from the band’s bandcamp page, plus download options.  Sky Picnic plan to have some more local gigs in the coming months, so check back at their facebook page for updates.

I recorded this set in our usual manner in the venue, with Schoeps MK5 microphones and a soundboard feed from the house engineer, Patrick. The sound is excellent. Enjoy!
