Monotonix, Black Eyes and Neck Ties & Unnatural Helpers to tear down Neumos and we have free tix!
September 15th, 2009
This Saturday at Neumos is a rare triple bill worth camping out early for and sticking around late. The night opens up with B-Ham’s horror punk favorites, Black Eyes and Neck Ties. Donning shreaded clothes, loads of eye makeup and the obligiory skinny black ties, the music that comes forth is epic, heavy and drips from the guitars like the fake blood from their skin. The down side of this is that Sat night will be the last time BENT plays Seattle. They have sadly confirmed that their 7 year stint is coming to an end so jump at this last chance to catch them play.

Up next is Seattle underground superband Unnatural Helpers. An ever evolving guitar-heavy punk consortium of our most talented musicians lead by Dean Whitmore. The music delivers full impressive sound for such incredibly minimalist, lo-fi riffs. The line-up currently includes Kimberly Morrison (Dutchess & the Duke) on bass, and Brian Standeford (Idle Times, Catheters, Tall Birds) Leo Gephardt (Catheters, Tall Birds) on guitars and of course Dean on durms/vocals. It’s like watching the all-star game of Seattle Music. See more of what we have to say about UH here.

Finally, Monotonix cap off the night. If you haven’t heard of the Israeli trio’s antics by now, I’m not sure where you’ve been. Neumos has agreed to let them take their preferred place on the floor where they can get the crowd whipped up into a writhing frenzy of sweat blood and flames. Prepare for a wall of Middle Eastern Punk Rock to fall on your face. Bring your tall shoes for this show as it’s bound to be a sea of iPhones and digi-cameras being held above people’s heads in a weak attempt to capture the essence of their insanity. Here’s a little taste of the Comet show I saw a last Feb.

The show is billed for this Saturday Night Sept 19th starting at 8:00 (doors) and lightening your wallet all of $13. This is an all ages show, so getcher tix soon!

OK, so finally we’re at the part where you get to win a pair of free tickets to the show! I’ll make this easy. Simply send me an email here (info at seattlesubsonic.com) with Monotonix in the subject. I’ll pick a winner Friday at noon and send you to your doom.. I mean, on your merry way.
