Meat Puppets bring desert-baked psychedelia tonight (9/21/11)

Posted By on Wed, Sep 21, 2011 at 7:00 AM

Meat Puppets The Kirkwood brothers’ most recent release, Lollipop, couldn’t possibly capture the bizarro-brilliant vibe of one of the most eclectic documents of the ’80s underground music scene, Up On the Sun, which just received the vinyl-only reissue treatment on the Pups’ own eponymous label. If Bob Mould had dropped peyote with Neil Young and Billy Gibbons, this is what might’ve emerged. But a comparison of the band’s 13th and 3rd full-lengths doesn’t embarrass the Meat Puppets, either — in the band’s third decade, they’re still following their own desert-baked psychedelia muse. With The Weeks. $12. Visulite Theatre. www.visulite.com.
