Roy and the Devils Motorcycle & Navel - ISC, 20130117

  • What a harsh night that was... After several moons of relative calmness, with some minor exceptions like the not-so-bad-but-not-so-wild Trashbones gig in Solothurn, I was quite excited to see and hear the Roys here in Bern again. As they were billed together with Navel, one of the very coolest and most energetic post-grunge-flower-punk garage combos around, everyone with their heart on the wild side made sure to be there. And indeed, starting with some older tracks like the monumental and droning Dark Sunday Evening, Roy and the Devils Motorcycle "(un)rooted in Spacemen 3, 60s dirty garage rock, and old dusty blues records about death, love and kicking out" were intense like hell. Bare with me for the details, just let me recommend you to go and grab those guys records NOW. Thank you ponies for the beers!
