Just in time to kick off Halloweekend, Boy Harsher held a sold-out record release show last Friday at Saint Vitus (1120 Manhattan Ave) to debut their new EP, “Country Girl.”
Toronto-based goth/industrial trio, Odonis Odonis, provided a foreboding start to the evening as they played from their latest album,No Pop. Perhaps in keeping with the smartphone-dystopian themes of the record, the band maintained an aloofness from the crowd throughout their set. Lead vocalist Dean Tzenos, whose sonorous voice was processed through a vocoder, came off as very reserved during his performance, which isn’t to say Odonis Odonis was dull. No Pop’s minimalist instrumentation, comprised solely of synths and an electronic drumkit, were spellbinding live, punctuated by Tzenos’ sparse screams. The trio sonically made up for what they lacked in charisma, filling Saint Vitus’ intimate space with heady waves of synth and echoing vocals.
Sultry weather falls across the land—yet Halloween hour is close at hand. Creatures crawl in search of blood to terrorize our North Brooklyn ‘hood. And whosoever shall be found without the soul for getting down, must stand and face the shutdown of the L and rot inside Williamsburg’s shell. The foulest stench is in the air, the funk of Newtown Creek’s years. And grizzly ghouls from every tomb are closing in to share your doom. And though you fight to stay alive, your body starts to shiver; for no mere mortal can resist the evil of the thriller.

Our friends at Supercrush Studio and CaraBella are donating proceeds to ConPRmetidos María: Puerto Rico Real-time Recovery Fund.
From Supercrush:
This was going to be just a normal show, but due to the recent events in Puerto Rico, we’ve decided to donate large part of the proceeds to Hurricane Maria relief efforts.
We’re sad to announce that Reanimadores won’t be able to travel to NYC from Puerto Rico until Friday, as the airport is still not fully functiona but we’re happy to announce that The Disfunction will now be joining us at this event. Hope to see you all there! We’re planning other shows with the band as we speak, but we’re still going ahead with this event as a fundraiser. Please come contribute to the Hurricane Maria relief cause! Hope to see you all there!
