Backwoods Payback at The Milestone tonight (3/22/12)

Posted By on Thu, Mar 22, 2012 at 9:06 AM

BACKWOODS PAYBACK No reason to leave the boogie out of heavy music — and Backwoods Payback doesn’t. Yeah, this Pennsylvania band owes plenty to fistfights ’n’ whiskey gutter rock a la Clutch, but there’s also a heavy-lidded, bong-rattling, weed-smoking (let’s not kid ourselves here) Southern blues-swing. There’s enough riff-worship here to make Sabbath fans happy, but there’s also a passing similarity to a ZZ Top 7” played at 33 1/3 rpm instead of 45. With Order of the Owl and Musket King. $6-$9. The Milestone.
