Titus Andronicus
November 19, 2010
at the Haymakers, 18th November.
They have 4 guitars. They rock hard. That would be enough.
They perform really well, and I love the sound. Easily enough to buy some of the music to listen to the lyrics.
An exchange I particularly enjoyed – the lead’s guitarist had packed in.
Lead: “What was it Thoreau said about ‘all our inventions’? ‘Just improved means to unimproved ends’?”
Bass: “This shit’s not plugged in”
Lead: “Oh, yeah.”
Update – they’re awesome. They’ve been on heavy rotation in my playlist for much of the last three months.
I will not deny my humanity
I’ll be rolling in it like a pig in faeces
Because there’s no other integrity
In awaiting the demise of our species

“The enemy is everywhere!”
I love Titus Andronicus. Didn’t realise they were touring. Must see if they’re going to be near me here…

Nick D got the tickets, for which I’m extremely grateful. Also to The Joy Formidable in Feb, if you’re interested (http://www.myspace.com/events/View/8449393/Cambridge-St-Pauls)?
