Also Tonight in Music

posted by on October 30 at 13:37 PM

Two very cool touring bands are coming through the Funhouse, Capillary Action from Philly and Uz Jsme Doma from Prague. Doma are a prog band from Prague, how cool is that? From their website:

Uz Jsme Doma spent the first years of its existence in underground Czechoslovakia. After the Velvet Revolution it was one of the first groups to storm out and establish an alternative rock sound for the new republic. Along with Plastic People of the Universe they became ambassadors of Central European rock, frequently touring the U.S. and establishing a cult following in America. If the PPU embody the Communist repression of the 1970s and 1980s in their gloomy, despair-driven music, then Uz Jsme Doma represents the exuberance of liberation.

Capillary Action plays songs with frantic bi-polar changes and Mike Patton-esque vocals. Pitchfork’s Joe Tangari named their instrumental debut Fragments one of the 50 best albums of 2005. After this tour they are heading out to roam the country with local favorite PWRFL POWER.
