A Happy Death has had a busy summer. The four piece surf-infused rock outfit has been spreading their psychedelic nihilism all over town, hitting most every venue you could think of and exciting audiences with one of the most energetic performances you can find in the Portland music scene. The wild drums beats, driving bass lines and vintage keyboard tones are enough to drop the jaw of even the most judgmental hipster, while the howling vocals and painfully distorted guitar tones can whip a crowd into a chaotic frenzy. See them at the Kenton Club this Friday night. You’ll be glad you did.–Benjamin Toledo
