Crystal Antlers @ The Macbeth, Aug 25th.
What? Crystal Antlers, Setting Son. Crystal Antlers are up there in the top 10 live bands we’ve seen this year. Over the past year they’ve released their debut album ‘Tentacles’ and have been touring like absolute bastards. They support Deerhunter the night before this gig. The sound is gloriously noisy prog-punk with organs, lots of percussion, epic guitar riffs and a bass playing front man with a hell of a voice. For Fans Of: The Mars Volta, At-The Drive In, Abe Vigoda. // more

Deerhunter, Health, Crystal Antlers @ Koko, Aug 24th.
What? Upset The Rhythm present Atlanta, Georgia’s Deerhunter. Following a storming sold out Scala show in May Bardford Cox and band return to top this mouth watering bill. Expect surf tinged experimental indie tracks with monstrous vocal and guitar effects. Karen-O (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) has hailed their live show as a ‘religious experience’. For Fans Of: Grizzly bear, Animal Collective, Atlas Sound. // more

Crystal Antlers @ Hoxton Bar & Kitchen, May 25th.
What? Once Bitten presents Crystal Antlers, Three Trapped Tigers and Inconsolables in Hoxton on Bank Holiday Monday. I’ve just seen LA progsters Crystal Antlers for the second time when they blew myself and all away at a packed out Great Escape gig. Possibly my new favourite band! For Fans Of: The Mars Volta, At The Drive In, Abe Vigoda. // more
