So have you heard the new Far-Out Fangtooth album Borrowed Time? It’s really fuckin’ good! That’s why it’s our Album of the Month. You can read our review of it HERE. The macabre psych-rock four-piece will be celebrating its release this Saturday at The Boot & Saddle. Have you been to The Boot & Saddle yet? Well, I have, and it’s a great sounding room, so hearing Far-Out Fangtooth tear through their new material is an opportune time to do so. They’ll also be joined by noisy, metal-acid rockers Harsh Vibes, Lantern guitar-wielding maestro Zachary Devereux Fairbrother, and LODRO, who is currently a Deli NYC Featured Artist(s) Poll nominee. It’s definitely a not-to-be-missed evening in South Philly! The Boot & Saddle, 1131 S. Broad St., 9pm, 21+ (Photo by Justin Pittney) – Q.D. Tran
