Writhing Squares: April 27, 2024 Tubby’s

Writhing Squares: April 27, 2024 Tubby’s

Writhing Squares has lengthy been the duo of Kevin Nickles and Daniel Provenzano accompanied by a drum machine, each within the studio and dwell. However for his or her most up-to-date album, Mythology, they modified issues up a bit with a dwell drummer by bringing on board John Schoemaker. Embarking on a brief tour for the album, the band introduced alongside David Joachim to drum dwell. After a launch present of their hometown of Philadelphia (which you’ll be able to watch on YouTube) the trio hit Tubby’s at full quantity. Most of their set hails from the aforementioned Mythology, plus “NFU” from Chart For the Resolution and “Steely Eyed Missile Man” from Out of the Ether. There’s one thing ineffable in regards to the Writhing Squares sound, particularly of their pummeling dwell present. Whereas Chart For the Resolution conjures The Operating Man with its dystopian Krautrock, Mythology is more durable to pin down. It wasn’t till their remaining music, a canopy, that I noticed what they have been channeling: the band leans in arduous to their prog roots with a heavy, vigorous tackle King Crimson’s “twenty first Century Schizoid Man.” There aren’t many bands that would pull off such a feat—all hail Writhing Squares!

I recorded this from our standard location at Tubby’s with a board feed from FOH, Will. As normally Tubby’s sounds nice beneath Will’s boardwork and this recording displays that. Get pleasure from!
