Topping off the evening at Mercury Lounge was Brooklyn band "The Electric Mess", which was another band whose show I liked a lot.
The Electric Mess is a dynamic five piece. Their music has played to international acclaim. Here is an excerpt from a UK review that appears on their page: "Shindig! (UK):
"The Electric Mess? Nothing could be further from the truth! Fronted by the mercurial vocal talents of androgynous lead singer
Esther Crow aka Chip Fontaine and backed by four intuitive musicians... the New York City-based outfit produce tight, inventive,
white knuckle ride garage-punk."
Some of the lyrics and song titles push the over-the-top envelope. I always vote in favor of that haha.lol. Here are examples of some of the song titles: "He Looks Like a Psycho", "The Girl With the Exploding Dress", and "Don't Take Your Bad Trip Out On Me", to name a few.
Another is "You've Become A Witch", the video version of which is playing right here: (Watch it FULL screen to the very "The End").
