Ringo Deathstarr 6/10/15 Bar

Austin Texas based trio RD brought the noise for this show at Bar. Guitar/vocals, bass/vocals, and drums were all that was required to deliver ear-splitting squall. Guitarist reminded me of the spazz version of Yo La Tengo's Ira Kaplan. Lanky female bassist and motorik drummer provided the perfect backdrop for the fuzz and reverb drenched songs. Barely audible vocals were almost unnecessary in the Deathstarr attack. At one point, the singer asked if anyone in attendance was in the Skull and Bones, they said they would accept any and all grant money. It's curious why the proboscis-oriented drummer for the Beatles has spawned so many band names. Obla-Dee, oblin-deed.
