% headlining
The Dublin four-piece noise band performed in the U.S. for the first time earlier this year, where their bicoastal and SXSW debuts cemented their reputation for frenetically captivating live shows that preceded them (Its hard to overstate how heart-stopping it is to see these four guys from Dublin play live, but Ill say they make it sound like the whole world is going to literally explode in a massive, interstellar ball of fire. Its the end of everything and theyre both indifferent and full of rage – NPR).
