Music Menu Pullman Strike at Tremont tonight (1/4/13)

Posted By on Fri, Jan 4, 2013 at 8:41 AM

PULLMAN STRIKE, THE SAMMIES, MOTEL GLORY
You'll mosh. You'll cry. You may even try on a pair of Carhartts, as there's as much mournful rural twang as urban grit and gristle to Charlotte country-rockers Pullman Strike. The band's strongest qualities - galloping Northeastern punk energy and plaintive storytelling - balance against each other nicely, resulting in an engaging, down-to-earth crossover approach. The Sammies, on the other hand, offer an energized, indie-rock hybrid that looks less to the dive or the backwoods, and more to the arena: the songs of this Charlotte band are massive, infectious stompers. And Rock Hill's Motel Glory leads an occasionally jittery, sugar-high charge straight into the country-punk camp. Yet all three bands know how to slow down and spin a sad musical tale of loss and regret - gotta respect that. $7. Jan. 4, 9 p.m. Tremont Music Hall, 400 W. Tremont Ave. 704-343-9494.
