| Object Band
Performing in the Back Gallery 9pm
Object resurrects the brain-dead with more than a few jarring songs wrought
with pure emotional violence expressed in the form of an equation that balances
only two members. From Brooklyn, with love, the duo possesses a kind of innocent
demure that is only shattered by the deafening blow of their post grunge
anthems. Above all else, Object have pushed their way into the collective
consciousness and sit there on the merit of their music. Finely crafted hard
rock that recalls the likes of Failure, Fugazi, Foo Fighters, Jeff Buckley and
Nirvana, with a raucous live show that flaunts fearless semi-demented yet
thoughtful tunes and a mess of beautiful noise that could make your head
explode. Object wants you to open your eyes to the possibilities.
