Bells Bells Bells at JB’s Aug. 20

 
Resident psych/freak-folk outfit Bells Bells Bells ring out the summer at JB’s. Gorgeously gloomy with chilling reverb, their latest release A Ghost Could Live Here mixes guitar shreds with organ and opera with rock. Aided by frontwoman Amandah Romick’s haunting vocals, tracks like “Prophet on the Horizon” are driving, dramatic, and fierce. The cosmic riffs of “Laika, An Astronaut” are melodic amidst distortion. Notes bend, sounding much like shrieks. In “Little Hours”, Romick resembles Siouxsie Sioux with a pinch of Kate Bush as her hypnotic voice eases into a near instrumental end. She’ll be paired with the polished pop of Acres of Diamonds and freak out jams of Lo Power Plane. Johnny Brenda’s. 1201 Frankford Ave., 8pm, $10, 21+ – Dianca Potts
