Tonight! Monotonix! Die Inhibitions!
Posted by Andrew R Tonry on Tue, Sep 30, 2008 at 2:26 PM
Just a few bad pictures from the last time the chain lightning that is Monotonix rattled through Portland at MFNW. The show was at Satyricon. Packed to the walls. After one song a garbage can got dumped on the drummer's head. Singer climbing on everything. Crowdsurfing. Moving the drums out deeper into the audience then finally out into the street. The crowd hoists the drummer up on his bass drum and he continues to play (why don't I have a picture of this?) while the singer swings from the trees. Amazing catharsis, as always.
Monotonix are paired tonight with the Silver Jews. Never sure what will happen, though I'd get close to the band as possible, as they won't play on stage. Get there early, that is, unless you want the Silver Jews to look really boring in comparison. Monotonix are a tough, if not impossible, act to follow.
