The very anticipated concert of this week has got to be Tigers Jaw, Modern Baseball, and Suns playing this Friday at Flux.
Hailing from Scranton, PA, Tigers Jaw is alt. rock/punk/hard to describe with anything but feelings. Their band is the kind of music that tears you apart, that reaches into your insides, and pulls down the veils that hid mirrors. Tigers Jaw is a reflection--of you, of them, of the earthly emotions that tie us all together.

If you don't remember, I previously wrote about Modern Baseball back in November (check out the article here). Perfect counterpart to Tigers Jaw, Modern Baseball is a local Philadelphia band that's getting big. Once, they were playing house shows in the basements of college kids; now, they're the rough diamonds getting national attention. If you haven't heard of them yet, you definitely will in the next few days. Daily events become meaningful lyrics--Modern Baseball transforms facebook and twitter into artful phrases to catch.
The setlist wouldn't be complete without Suns. Overcast punk rock, this band has the sinewy strength to outrace anything. Despite the bright name, Suns doesn't take on the qualities of illumination--it takes on the strength and ability to burn. It's darkened, it's soul ripping, and it's just the kind of band that brings this intense concert into a unified whole.
Admission to this show is five dollars. Unfortunately, this concert is for Drexel students and their guests only, so kidnap one of us and get going this Friday. Jack Sparrow knows how to book it like crazy--you should, too if you wanna make it in time March first before this show gets sold out.
