• Crystal Stilts @ The Garage, Aug 16th.

    What? Crystal Stilts are from Brooklyn and released one of our favourite albums of 2008/09, the brooding and consistently excellent ‘Alight Of The Night’. Firm favourites of one of our favourite blogs, NYC’s own Brooklyn Vegan. Front man Brad Hargett’s raspy vocals are like a cross between Ian Curtis and Jim Morrison under water.

    Crystal Stilts @ ICA, May 22nd.

    What? Crystal Stilts are a cool as fuck Brooklyn guitar band who play reverb heavy dark disco/surf tunes with a foot in the past but their hearts and heads pointed firmly forwards. Whatever the hell that means!
