Screaming Females @ Bowery Ballroom

Washington Post: You’re about to record a new album, so that means you have a whole batch of new songs ready to go. But when you play shows, people like to hear songs they know. So how do you decide to work new stuff into the setlist?

Mike Abbate: We played a show in New Brunswick over the summer and we played only new songs and people were [very upset].

Marissa Paternoster: It didn’t go over very well. I thought they might be interested to hear some new stuff. It didn’t really work out that way.

So what can we expect from the new material?

Paternoster: It’s chillwave. It’s witch house.

I think you missed that boat by about six months, unfortunately.

Paternoster: We don’t care! We’re bringing it back! It’s post-witch-house! Dubstep, that’s in there, too … We just want to write some good songs. For riding your bike. For walking your dog. For driving your cool car. For driving your Grandma around to the supermarket. “Hey Grandma, listen to this. This rocks!”

Screaming Females played Bowery Ballroom on Saturday (10/8) with appearances from Hilly Eye, Underground Railroad to Candyland, and Shellshag. The show was one of the first of a larger tour that will stretch into early November, heading as far west as Fargo, ND before looping back to play a doubleheader day/night show at Court Tavern in New Brunswick on 11/6. Most dates are with Underground Railroad to Candyland.

One of those dates goes down at The Fest 10, the mega-Gainesville, FL punk festival going down from 10/28 – 10/30 and featuring more than 200 bands that vary widely in the general “punk” genre (everything from the prefix “pop” to powerviolence). Full lineup is below and though passes are sold out, walk-up tickets for most shows are still available.

More pictures from the NYC show are below.
