NOISE POP 2013
SISU/LENZ
BRICK AND MORTAR HALL, SF
02 MARCH, 2013
Saturday night for Noise Pop '13 turned out to be so colossal, it's broken up into multiple parts. DIIV headlined a second consecutive sold out night at the Brick and Mortar Hall, and the full lineup was quality, to say the least. First half of the evening will be covered here: Oakland-based Lenz, and SISU from Los Angeles. SISU, of course, has popped up here a few times, from the Echoplex on their home turf, and on a field trip to Santa Barbara for the New Noise Block Party last fall. Most recently, they bagged a prime East Coast opening slot for Cat Power, and, as this night showed, continue to improve as a live band. The set had some new songs, with "Intimidator" being the prime pick, making one pine for a full-length LP. They built momentum throughout, ending with a powerful one-two punch of "Light Eyes" and "Two Thousand Hands" from last year's EP, Demon Tapes, Vol. II. Another notch in the gun belt for SISU.
