We miss Blood On the Wall since they all moved from NYC but thankfully they are back again this weekend for a show at Mercury Lounge on the Lower East Side. They are currently on their second US tour in support of recent album Liferz and sounding blistering as ever live. Here's what Village Voice recently had to say about them: "Blood On The Wall get points for acknowledging a bunch of good ideas that other people had first: layered, gauzy, shimmering production; jokes about drugs; and mewling male/female vocals. Their Liferz is one of the year's most sublime, equal parts cascading melodies, nausea and romance...music about loving music, from a band thats atypically easy to like." We can't imagine a band that puts on a more invigorating live show...unmissable.
