Twin Tigers will be at the Drunken Unicorn on Saturday, May 7th

Twin Tigers on Saturday, May 7th, 2011 at the Drunken Unicorn



Twin Tigers is a rock 'n roll band from Athens, GA. Matthew Rain and Aimee Morris started it in their basement. A bunch of people have come and gone, and the third tiger was found when Forrest Hall started playing guitar number 2. They write songs and play them, they are loud and abrasive, but beautiful and kinda catchy. They play music because that is all they know how to do.

Cusses are the second performer of the evening.



"Bypassing electro fever, Cusses pushes out with a raw rock rhythm, reminiscent of yesteryear, made capable by multi-pedal powered guitar and crash-tested drumming that creates a sound not much heard these days by young bands trying to make it in the indie scene.

The hardcore influences are apparent in presentation and strum alike. Drummer Brian Lackey has the ability to brutalize his drums into submission and produce a fearless and well-organized spread, harvesting the bottom-line for each song with strong tenacity.

Bryan Harder, who in my few encounters with, gives off a smooth and quiet presence, but behind that guitar gets sentimental and ramps up a mesh of chords, maximizing his play projection through double amps, providing an air of bass and himself. He creates a facet of noise that shows off his appreciation for strong hard-carrying danceable movements, as Lackey also appreciates in his drumming.

More than head-bobbing, it is a guarantee that more than half of fans will be dancing around, jumping into one another, and holding on for a moment to burst out loud with vocalist Angel Bond.

The motivated and erratic front lady; body shaking, mic and hands air-born, hair flung up done proper, a local example of the high class power thrilled female singers in the current running. Motions swingin’ like Alice Glass and a dressed down workout attire sure to keep you interested much like the hip hop digs of Alexis from Sleigh Bells.

Shining, charismatic and thriving full as they should be, Cusses seems to fit quaintly in the middle of a scene long saturated in a stew of punk rock, rockabilly, dancepop and hip hop Savannah culture." - Courtney Johnson / XT Mag

Abby Gogo are opening the show.



"Abby Go Go release their self-titled, debut full length November 30th, and if you enjoy psychedelic, shoegazey rock, you’ll definitely want to pick this up. Most of the record extracts poppy garage-rock riffs and elongates them into effect laden, four-to-seven-minute compositions of indulgence. The two shorter, more conventional garagey tracks are less interesting, but in context they help pace the album. With this release, Abby Go Go have definitely established themselves as one of the best in the massive army of Black Lips/Deerhunter descendant bands in Atlanta." - Ohmpark
