Rozamov brought the heavy, grinding sludge during their set opening for Slayer and Doomriders at The Sinclair. What a great way to get things going early.
Converse Rubber Tracks Live brought Dinosaur Jr. to The Sinclair with The Replacements and The Young Leaves. Unbelievable. The iconic trio did their part to make the evening memorable. They dug into old favorites, their fantastic new material and a few songs even people who don’t know who Dinosaur Jr. are would recognize. All songs were delivered at maximum volume for maximum impact. Did you expect anything less?
What’s up, Holliston? Looks like The Young Leaves and I share a hometown. The band’s big sound and dynamic presence easily make them the best band I’ve ever seen from the quaint New England suburb.* What’s not to like about loud, fast, roughed-up sonic blasts? Watching them open for The Replacements and Dinosaur Jr. made me happy.
* Downtown Holliston has a general store. Fiske’s. It’s a landmark. Also, this show is named after the town.
Dynamos. DY-NA-MOS. The Static Dynamic lit up TT’s with an electric set of modern rock tunes for Rumble Semifinal Night #2.

Murcielago opened Rumble Semifinal Night #2 with a sound equivalent to the concentrated mass of a black hole. TT’s didn’t stand a chance of escaping their mammoth stoner riffs. What a set.

Capping off a night where the music ruled all else, Dirty Bangs played a set no one at TT’s will soon forget. Their music comes from the heart. Their Rumble Semifinal performance bared their soul. Keep a close eye on these guys.

Hmmm. How to describe Zip-Tie Handcuffs’ set at Rumble Semifinal Night #1? Well, the “teach aliens about punk rock” angle is already taken. Let’s just say that these guys have been the wildest, most inventive, least restrained band of this year’s event. Their reward? Zip-Tie Handcuffs are headed to the Rumble Finals.

Set #2 of Rock ‘N’ Roll Rumble Semifinal #1 featured the chill sounds of Soft Pyramids. Any set that includes “Around This Town” is OK in my book. These guys can ride a groove.
