Black Lips and London VS New York @ Mohawk
The Black Lips are Joe Bradley (vocals & drums), Jared Swilley (vocals & bass), Ian St. Pe (guitar) and Cole Alexander (vocals & guitar), out of Atlanta, Georgia. They’ll be bringing a number of albums and a lingering reputation for raucous and wild live shows onto Mohawk Place’s stage. Packing their energy from the stage and earlier records into dark corners of solid 1960s punk songs, the Black Lips' new album Good Bad Not Evil, explores a growth in sound that can't be considered a taming of their chaotic performances, but rather a growth from them. Given national exposure in Rolling Stone and Spin magazines in 2006, they were labeled the “Hardest Working Band” by none other than the New York Times at 2007’s South by Southwest festival, where they played nearly twelve shows over three days.
Speaking about hard working, London Vs New York has declared that they’ll have a hot single out by the end of August, to follow up 2007’s full length Words & Behavior. We’ll keep you posted as that anticipated new release draws near!
