A Place To Bury Strangers, Camilla Sparksss @ Patterns, Brighton, UK, May 20, 2023
Opening are local duo HAU who offer distorted noise to the early birds of the event. These guys know how to make some noise and mash up genres so seamlessly that it can't be pigeon holed into one or the other. They are definitely a live band and well worth watching if you see their name pop up on a bill sometime.
At the Bowery Ballroom, the trio played loud and heavy music that was equal parts atmospheric, psychedelic, shoegaze, and space rock. Its thudding, droning wall-of-sound featured intense distortion at the forefront and speeding propulsion as its foundation.
