of opening day's most anticipated shows was the homecoming appearance of Austin
locals ...And They Will Know Us By the Trail of Dead and for very good reasons,
including their current and classic rock influences combined searing guitars,
acid lyrics, and sweeping sonic washes. Besides just the Trail of Dead's vintage
Led Zeppelin wallop and more modern Sonic Youth tint, they showed a bit of The
Who's interactive stage presence and destructive bombast. Towards the end of
their set, members shattered their instruments in the rowdy Pete Townshend like
spirit, leaving a trail of broken guitar necks, stings, and strewn drumheads as
an additionally memorable trail to their electrifying live experience. | |
