Warpaint
"Warpaint, a four-piece band from L.A., primed the stage with their sultry, pajama-clad jams. Call it psychedelic, call it sexy, call it what you will, whatever is going on here, I want more of it. I have no aversion to all girl bands, and Warpaint gives no reasons to complain. The reverb suspends the sound in a murky haze, with pounding drums in the background. Warpaint is both, exactly what I want to hear on an acid trip, and what I would want to hear if I was deep sea diving. Anything reminiscent of the unknown, dark, mysterious, and curious. These girls invite you to follow them into the rabbit hole, and I'm following their lead.Their EP, Exquisite Corpse is out now, and you can catch them all over SXSW in the coming weeks." [Intercontinental Breakfast]Akron/Family, Warpaint & Please the Trees shared the bill at Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn on Wednesday night (3/3). More pictures from the show beow...

why WOULD you have an aversion to all girl bands? unless you were a sexist dweeb.

warpaint were so good. them and akron must have more fun touring together

Leia - these are so great. Your experience and talent are serving each other well!

Yeah, that "aversion" comment is superfluous, even strange. If you don't have a problem with something like an all-girl band, why even mention it? That said, I wish I hadn't skipped this show.

Any chance of adding an mp3 or representative video to this post for a sonic taste?

Warpaint = jam band version of the Vivian Girls. I was not impressed. On the other hand, I thought Akron/Family were fantastic!

I don't know, a jam band version of the Vivian Girls sounds kind of awesome.
