Avant-primitive faves HEALTH celebrate a homecoming tonight. By now, the veteran Smellies know their excellent debut front-to-back. Their art-punk conceptualism and tricky rhythms flatter your inner-critic, latching onto some preverbal, amphibian recess deep in the brain — all grinding noise and tribal drums, repetitive chants, and slurred vocals with few discernible words. Liars’ name usually gets an apt mention in comparison, but fans of the A Frames, GSL spazz, the Fall, no wave, or any other kind of left-field scree will be delighted. Plus, unlike many similar bands, HEALTH remembers that dancing is a primal urge, too.
