Note: British Sea Power play Spaceland on Thur Feb 28.
Bombastic UK quartet British Sea Power play the Echo tonight in support of their brand-new album, Do You Like Rock Music? The record finds the band further refining the triumphant, crescendo-laden indie rock of its sophomore release, Open Season, with frontmen Yan and Hamilton's lyrics remaining stuffed with cultural and historical allusion. BSP are known for elaborately staged live shows — which recently included bloodshed from keyboardist Phil Sumner after an ill-advised stage dive — and their theatrical flourishes genuinely pull at the heartstrings, goofy antics and all. Fellow indie rockers Colourmusic and local band Castledoor kick off the evening.
