PINS OF LIGHT • THE BIRTH DEFECTS (l.a.) • FRISCO rws, subliminalsf, and ivy room present Ages 21+ Pins Of Light The Birth Defects, Frisco rws and subliminalsf present a night of killer bands.... PINS OF LIGHTBANDCAMP | FACEBOOK San Francisco’s Pins of Light reside in that murky musical shadow-territory of the nearly unclassifiable. They craft a brutal and intricate mélange of metal, punk and prog that isn’t quite any of those things. Pins of Light’s most progressive moments are more Motörhead than Mothers of Invention; their metal is more Pink Floyd than it is Judas Priest; the elements of punk are a driving fistfight that’s entirely the band’s own. Singer and bassist Shane Baker, guitarists Jake Palladino and Ravi Durbeej, and drummer Phil Becker come previously (and currently) from such SF institutions as Dead and Gone, Night After Night, Hightower and Triclops (among a slew of others). The group’s debut album II was recorded by Kurt Schlegel (Jello Biafra, Melvins, I Am Spoonbender) and Phil Manley (TransAm, The Fucking Champs) at Lucky Cat Recording and mixed by Becker in the band’s hometown. THE BIRTH DEFECTSBANDCAMP | FACEBOOK The Birth Defects are the L.A. band that play hard, fast, loud AND ugly — too many people leave out that last one — and when they’re really setting themselves on fire they come off like the Dicks’ Gary Floyd fronting some bar-breaking Zeke-style punk. FRISCOBANDCAMP | FACEBOOK Taking a decidedly different direction than one might expect of a band featuring a pair of heavyweight stoner-metal players, Frisco explores a hard-swinging style of knotty noise punk. The songs topped by McDonald’s tuneful, manic vocals that split the difference between PiL-era John Lydon, Joy Division’s doomed frontman Ian Curtis and the lurching unpredictability of Scratch Acid/The Jesus Lizard frontman David Yow.
