April’s Equalizer (check it out here) at Chicago’s darkroom bar paired punk-rock bands (The Whore Moans and Lasers and Fast and Shit) with experimental, instrumental acts ( El Ten Eleven and Metavari) for a night of variety, rock and mayhem.
It’s all wrapped up in this video of the event, featuring band interviews and live performance clips. Lasers and Fast and Shit spill the story behind “Lemon Bar”; The Whore Moans reveal their celebrity following; El Ten Eleven offer predictions for their upcoming fourth album; and Metavari shout out to Muxtape — heard of it?
