Schnitzler, that is, particularly his Charred Machinery album. “Droid” by Are You a Cat? (who are still my favorite Seattle band until further notice) tap into the German electronic-music pioneer’s infernal, chaotic analog-synth symphonies, which unnerve like nothing else in the realm, while not resorting to Merzbovian nuclear sonic attack.
Are You a Cat? play May 13 at Rendezvous and May 17 & 23 at Full Tilt Ice Cream. Check for details here.
