Tonight Django Django, Unchained
Posted by Dave Segal on Tue, Mar 19, 2013 at 10:49 AM
(Neptune) The main reason I chose to write about this show is because I liked Django Unchained. Somehow the hype that had built around the band Django Django eluded me. But, hey, you know, these British boys are all right. They make gentle-souled psych-rock choons with subtle analog-synth embellishments in a manner that harks back to the much-missed Beta Band (you know, that band whose song was played in the record store in High Fidelity). Oh, look, Django Django's David Maclean is the brother of the Beta Band's John Maclean. Sibling influence or no, Django Django's self-titled 2012 album is a charming, quirky reminder that the hype machine doesn't always malfunction.
