The Octopus Project plays at the Bluebird tonight. So Many Dynamos and Hunter Gatherer -- a new project featuring Robbie from Say Panther/Ghost of the Forest/many other bands -- also open. Here's what Kristy Wendt said about the headliners this week:
Endemic to this instrumental band is unusual execution, and by juggling a handful of instrumental specialties, it produces compelling electronic tracks that retain all of their innocuous glory. Hello Avalanche beams up listeners with what might be the musical backdrop for a little alien boy's Sunday afternoon bicycle ride.
Decide for yourself:
