PICK OF THE WEEK: VHS or BETA - Friday September 7th - Larimer Lounge, Denver, CO

Why You Should Go: A fiery mix of dance-punk and rock-n-roll give VHS or BETA a leg up on most of today's bands that are capitalizing on the resurgance of the New Wave sound. Their 2004 single "Night on Fire" (below) catipulted them into the mainstream and their recent album Bring on the Comets was released last week and has been referred to as "The Killers meets the Cure meets late-night top-40 radio dance remixes." And to be honest that's fairly accurate.

I wouldn't expect to leave the show unalterably changed, but I would expect to be sweaty and tired from moving to the undeniably danceable tunes that band is sure to crank out in the wonderfully cramped and dingy confines of the Larimer.

Wait, Flock of Seagulls is back but with a Gibson SG this time around? I'm confused. Enjoy the show! I'll be in bed by then.
