- Old Time Relijun
Half slappy neo-no wave, half swagger-happy cowpunk, alien rockers Old Time Relijun axe aggressively, hacking at traditional modes of composition until there's nothing left but the stump. Minimalists of a rare, ultra-energetic type, the boys shake the shatooby out of simple riffs, bumping and swaying to slow-plunking tom-tom beats, as trebly guitars spike in and out of sparse, stringy bass lines. Lead singer Arrington de Dionyso also sways back and forth — at times his guttural grunt is demonlike, while at others, he drops the raw, high-pitched squeals of a boozed-out Gordan Gano. While the band's early career was defined by loose, often alienating antics, it's tightened things up just enough to make it out of the Abbey Pub tonight.
