The Edinburgh Castle plays host to a night of local overdriven guitar pop. Calling All Monsters channel the grit of early Sebadoh without shortchanging the hooks. Whether swilling power chords on a track like "We Are Special Forces" or toning things down for a more melodic approach, the band sounds very much in touch with its garage. If Touch Committee seem a little more gussied up for their Bedhead-touched interlocking guitars, they remain a throwback to the fuzzed-out daydreams that had their heyday during the '90s — fans of the spectrum of bands running from the Pixies to Nada Surf will find plenty to love here.
