So Crocodiles, as we know, have been building up a much-deserved buzz around them this year. I FINALLY caught them opening for The Raveonettes last week at the Fonda, after missing all their shows this summer and they were great, but probably suited for a smaller venue where the feedback can completely envelope you rather than bounce off the walls and get lost in space.
Sub-Pop’s new signees Dum Dum Girls are another San Diego band that now claims to be an LA band (cough cough SOFT PACK) but I won’t hold that against them. I’m waiting for the whole buzzsaw guitars and reverb-turned-up-to-11 thing to get old to me, but nope, doesn’t seem to happening yet. And the girls do it well.
But if you don’t feel like making the trek to SD, Dum Dum Girls and Pearl Harbor (also a good band) are playing Spaceland on November 28th also with The Tartans. I think that’ll be a good show, you should attend.
