Titus Andronicus
Saturday June 28, 2008 (2pm)
East River Amphitheater
Cherry St & FDR Drive
Say what you will about ambitious New Jersey quintet Titus Andronicus — they make a helluva racket. The band's recently released debut, The Airing of Grievances, buries seething punk-rock screeds in ringing guitars and piano, calling to mind the Replacements and home-state hero Bruce Springsteen. With their proclivity for literary references kept in check by an overwhelming desire to wail, Titus' new tunes exhibit the breadth of a biblical epic and the angst of a high-school parking lot. Expect open-air sing-alongs, and, in keeping with their namesake play, plenty of blood and guts.
