THE DELI

A mysterious psych/surf sonic structure sweeps through when breathing in the music of Sixteen Jackies. Serenading in relaxed, sand-in-your-toes melodies that rhythmically breeze by but hint at an underlying stormy volatility, there’s a cautious, haunting element that lays in wait, stirring up the atmosphere in funky, possessive, art-rock/pop grooves. Incorporating the serene with the slightly strange and cutting through the mist with moments that set you in motion, the glam quartet hovers the threshold between calm and combustible. Tonight, at PhilaMOCA, Sixteen Jackies will be celebrating the release of their double EP 12” vinyl, Movie Was Bad & Mascula, via Born Losers Records. They’ll also be joined by The Lawsuits’ offshoot Isles Isles, the tumultuous, trance-inducing fun of Madalean Gauze, and the hazy, splintering get down of Long Hots. – Michael Colavita

Everything Matters But No One Is Listening is the new album from Quiet Slang, which is out now via Polyvinyl Records. Strings and piano reshape the instrumental environment of these Beach Slang songs. Rather than rearing back and roaring, these takes sit back – still exhibiting poignant power but with more space and air, allowing the lyrics to gradually sink. Originally slated to perform this weekend, Quiet Slang is now scheduled to take the stage at Underground Arts on Saturday, July 14, supported by Abi Reimold.

Originally featured on Chassit, the power trio of Heavy Temple recently shared an augmented version of “Key & Bone” (featuring Thunderhorse). While its previous incarnation orchestrated an eerie cathedral of sound, the fresher take wastes little time, throwing you directly into the pressure cooker. Oozing a fuzzy hypnosis, the band proceeds to shred and stampede in tight, explosive, instrumental pockets.
