Dreambook Record Release Show at KFN May 8

It really doesn’t seem that long ago when Dreambook’s demos first surfaced piquing my interest. And now, this evening at Kung Fu Necktie, the shoegaze quartet, consisting of Jim Anderson, Joe Grogan, Rachel Wetzel and Brian Ziprin, will be celebrating the release of their debut full-length album Only Shadows that you’ll have your choice of multi-colored pressings to grab. The group’s textured walls of sound are lovingly captured on their first effort, with the rise and fall of aggressive, distorted guitars pushing and pulling at your body, seductively drawing you deeper and deeper into the band’s cavernous embrace. There really is no need to try and resist. Kung Fu Necktie, 1250 N. Front St., 8pm, $8, 21+ – Alexis V.
