Perhaps psych-rock has been this exciting before, but never has it been so cool and cacophonous as Dark Meat’s Truce Opium. Take Elephant Six, add some MC5 and a dash of Seattle Seven, and you get…well, 18 and change, which is as apt a description as you will find.
Reminds us of: Rocket from the Crypt | Black Mountain | Blue Cheer

I’d like to clarify that for this show they cut off the back half of Neumo’s floor with a curtain and had the upstairs bar closed. It made Neumo’s obviously seem much smaller than it is. Unfortunately, now having seen Neumo’s fully open at another show I can say that this show was very empty. Still White Denim and Brazos rocked.

I agree, it’s very good. Way to deflate their balloon.

Love the photos. And that “Walkabout” song is the drugs.
