Brooklyn-based indie band The Antlers will make their first appearance as headliners at the Middletown venue this Wednesday. This will be their fourth visit to San Diego and the reason is a simple one: their music is full of passion and relies heavily on crescendo building anthemic songs mostly from their highly praised 2009 effort Hospice. Peter Silberman and his band mates are serious about their music and it shows during their performance. It is critical for the audience to connect to this form of music which deals with difficult subject matter. Music lovers who truly share this passion will fill the room and see a band fully immersed in their live set. I have personally been riveted to their sets each time I have witnessed them (the previous three). The Casbah should be the best place to see a band on the rise, so be part of something special and show the band some indie love this Wednesday. You won't regret it.

Jeff's Weekly Pick: Editors @ House of Blues Feb 9
Birmingham England’s Editors make a return visit to the House of Blues Tuesday Feb. 9. The brief North American tour coincides with the release of their third full length, In This Light and on This Evening. The album is a departure from their guitar driven previous efforts, featuring synthesizers this time. The songs tend to grow with repeated listens. The constant that remains is Tom Smith’s signature lead vocals, so there is no mistaking this is indeed an Editors’ album.
Any time a band attempts to expand their sound there is a risk of losing some of the fan base. Recent touring in Europe has provided favorable reviews from concert-goers, thought it might be somewhat more difficult to gain the same support on this side of the Atlantic. The band seems poised to take on the challenge. Editors live show is definitely worth the time and money.
