Description
The first band to dub itself "punk" was Suicide, a dissonant, lo-fi, keyboard-driven duo that created some of the eeriest music of the '70s. Pasadena's the Secret Society of Sonic Six are like a more unsettling, more unrelenting version of Suicide. But rather than Alan Vega's murmuring, howling vocals, Astar Ivanka brings a creepier, more understated monotone sound to the vocals. Like Suicide, the members of the Society use primitive instruments. There can't be a drum machine or keyboard newer than 1981 in the band. This show is part of the weekly "Club Apparition" series. Some nights it's DJs; other nights, bands. But it's always dark and weird. Also on the bill are Headless Lizzy & her Icebox Pussy.
