Tonight there is a not-to-be-missed triple bill over at DBGB’s featuring a double dose of local talent with The Mordaunt Sisters and Love Scenes, and Boston, psych-rock four-piece Dirty Dishes. As you know, we’ve been gushing about Love Scenes and Mordaunt Sisters here at the blog as much as possible, with Love Scene’s latest release Blissed-Out Youth being featured as our Album of the Week back at the beginning of July and The Mordaunt Sisters, who are consistently popping up on our radar, playing many gigs, not to mention being featured at the #3 spot on 2011’s Top Buffalo Bands list. As for Dirty Dishes, it is a rare experience to hear a psych-rock branded group that can stretch itself to such diverse corners of songwriting. Firstly, there are the vulnerable, 90’s style guitar riffs on display at the start of tracks like “Break” and “Bloom” that are paired so uniquely well with lead singer Jenny Tuite’s tip-toeing, breathless vocals as she ushers us so painlessly in. “Gaze” also starts very much like this, and suddenly the listener is tossed into coerced, seamless drum rhythms and feedback that send a shot of adrenaline along with the icy tag: “We are fading fast.” Within the structure of their songwriting, they tow the same line as alternative 90s gods The Smashing Pumpkins or My Bloody Valentine. This is definitely a show to get excited for, so clear your schedule tonight and get a move-on to Duke’s. The show starts at 10.
