Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
The band is scheduled to perform at Yellow Canary Dance Hall (see our interview with Stephen Steinbrink about his plans for the venue). The bill is rounded out with a selection of locals, including Weird Ladies (who's tape is one of my favorite local releases this year), Nihilism, and Pigeon Egg Men.
Iceage have been steadily building buzz for the past couple month, with publications and sites like Stereogum, Spin, joining Pitchfork in collective raving about the band. The has mysterious vibe, no doubt part of their appeal, but beyond that, the music is great ferocious, angular, no-wave inspired post-punk.
