18th Dye - Tonight!

In news that is sure to matter only to a select group of hardcore indie rock geeks and record store employees, 18th Dye have reunited. For everyone else, a little back-story: 18th Dye were an overlooked and under-appreciated mid-’90s alternative band based out of Berlin and Denmark who used a fuzzed-out, loud-quiet-loud formula reminiscent of the Wedding Present, the Pixies, and Sonic Youth. And, even despite being recorded by Steve Albini and championed by Yo La Tengo, the band never managed anything above a fervent cult status here in the States. Hopefully this little reunion tour will change all that. ROB SIMONSEN

18th Dye play with Devon Williams and Moodring tonight at Holocene (1001 SE Morrison), 8:30 pm, $8. Take a listen to 18th Dye here.
