The Twilight Sad: nice windbreaker, asshat.
Tonight at the Livingroom is the premier Providence show of Glasgow’s pale white mope-tastic Twilight Sad. Incredibly popular in their native U.K. and over here among the Britpop worshipping enclaves of New York and Boston, it will be interesting to see if Providence’s decidedly more inert anglophiles will come out, or if they’ve even heard of the band to begin with. Here’s an interesting review from Drowned In Sound. If you’re the kind of person who watched the previously posted trailer for Control like, nine times, (not me of course) you’ll want to come. Disclaimer: I am in the Cold War, so in the interest of journalistic integrity (snore) here is a review of our record from the Phoenix, who cannot be bought. This gig, while a definite must-attend, has the gloomiest lineup names ever…not our fault!
The Twilight Sad, the Cold War, the Quiet Life at the Livingroom, 8pm, $10 18+
Just because I’m smarter than you are doesn’t mean this dude isn’t an asshat.
