Bands that time forgot is going to be a new series on here. Tonight I’m shooting Monotonix. An Israeli band that has been banned from just about every club in Tel Aviv for their live show antics which include (not an exclusive list) setting their instruments on fire, stealing drinks from the audience, not to mention setting up their stage IN the crowd and having the crowd, crowd surf the drummer…Quite the interesting assignment.
Watching footage reminded me of At The Drive-In and their impeccable dance moves. Enjoy.
Indie favorites Elf Power swung through Madison on Friday night, playing a short set of their own songs before taking a short break and serving as the backing band for Vic Chestnutt who they recently recorded an album with. Talking with the keyboardist from Elf Power (woman with the funny hat) about life on the road was an interesting insight into the life of a touring band.
