Lightning Bolt / Oneida @ LPR 5/16/2015

Noise rock greats Lightning Bolt are currently on tour supporting new album Fantasy Empire. After hitting Levitation in Austin, the band were in NYC this past weekend for two shows, playing The Wick on Friday (5/5) and Le Poisson Rouge on Saturday (5/16). We hit the LPR show where Brian Chippendale’s manic, clattering drumming and Brian Gibson’s fuzzy bass had the crowd whipped into a swirling, frenzied mass. Opening the night was old pals Oneida who had Yo La Tengo’s James McNew in tow as well. Oneida’s setlist and pictures from LPR continue below…
