Music Menu Modern Man at Snug Harbor tonight (6/17/2012)

Posted By on Sun, Jun 17, 2012 at 8:38 AM

MODERN MAN This act from Greenville, S.C. paints in shades of shoegaze, post-punk and post-rock, tilting more guitar squall than ebb-and-crest, though both elements comfortably co-exist on their palette. Sure, these days those tags apply to scores of young bands basking in its discovery of My Bloody Valentine-guitar distortion. But what sets Modern Man apart is the sinister undertow of Joy Division pulse-and-thrum - and Allen Glenn's ghostly, echo-chamber vocals - that dial up the tension to a pleasurable frisson. By all means, find out if their full-length debut, Eyes No, is your cuppa by heading over to their pay-what-you-can Bandcamp page. With Troubador Dali, a name neither catchy nor clever. $5. Snug Harbor.
