Tonight at Spaceland, shimmery shoegaze pop collides with brooding, riff-heavy rock. Mere Mortals, fronted by German-born, London-bred Alex Steuerwald, craft refined, reverb-heavy pop songs influenced by the Verve, Oasis, and the Stone Roses. Fronting the bill, Xu Xu Fang offer dark, catchy arrangements driven by thick riffs and punch drums (check out the "Good Times" single for a taste), and Black Kites make beautiful, melancholy rock intensified by lilting boy/girl vocals.
