OTS: Jajatao, The Harridans, Cave Hand Rod

\"HARRIDANS

Chinese opera and grunge collide in Jajatao\’s bombastic and downright menacing sound which conjures wicked spirits of the past. At least, that\’s the vibe I was getting as I listened to the band, fresh off their nationwide tour to promote their newly released EP, The Rite of Spring, snarl, exorcise, and growl their way through their explosive set at School. And while I was a bit too flabbergasted to shot any footage (as well as dispirited by the number of camera sets in School Bar — which is slowly killing my buzz to even take out my camera anymore) I highly recommend catching these cats in the flesh – they\’re the real deal. However, while I was impressive and honored to catch both Jajatao and the high kicking, high spirited rock and roll glam of The Harridans, it was the opening band which left jaws on the floor. A grindcore band living pure and true to their genre, with songs about tapes worms in your bumhole, protests against maxipads, and some dude dressed up as the most terrifying Ronald McDonald. Cave Hand Rod (even the name stops me in my tracks) went the extra mile, with props, gusto, and a large dose of batshit crazy which had folks foaming at the mouth.

Definitely need to bring these kids to a daycare center sometime. Check out more pictures below, courtesy of my main man Stechs, always getting the nitty gritty of these events.
