Tonight: The Malones and Del Paxton


The melodic pop rock tunes of The Malones first caught our attention back in February when their eponymous demo album was chosen as our album of the week. With well crafted hooks and a sound that can be likened to The Strokes or Tokyo Police Club, they've quickly established themselves as one of the most exciting new local acts in recent memory. Their latest split EP with fellow Buffalo rockers Aircraft features the infectious tracks "4 AM" and "Handshake", which show off a gritty, highly danceable sound.

Tonight the band will play The Jungle Gym with local indie rock outfit Del Paxton, whose latest record Worst. Summer. Ever. also received a nod for album of the week earlier this year. The band's riff-heavy, introspective sound is arranged with great attention to detail and makes for the perfect soundtrack to fall. Also on the bill tonight is Brooklyn three-piece Rhino House Band whose jangly, easygoing pop vibe will be sure to set things off right. Doors open at 9pm with the music starting at 10. Tickets are $5 and can be purchased at the door.





Buffalo Band Abroad: The Malones AND Aircraft - Episode IX


The Malones and Aircraft played their last away show at Rochester's Bug Jar last night. They would say they were surprised that the crowd was meager if they hadn't mostly been playing to eachother and the other featured bands for most of their tour. But they can definitely say they've seen some excellent bands, namely, the Heard of Detroit and Rhino House Band of Brooklyn, and they have learned lessons that only touring can teach.

But for now, the boys are home and excited to be able to shit in the solitude of their own home and (to everyone's excitement) the last show of tour will be at the Waiting Room tonight! The doors open at 8PM and music starts at 9PM. Also playing tonight will be Marine Biologist and the Tell Tale Signs.

The show will be a warm welcome back for the guys from the two-week long road trip, thanks to adoring Buffalonian friends and fans. If you were missing those raucous Malones shows and Aircraft's spacey, beachy grooves, come out tonight and show them all how much you missed them. And for God's sake, buy some merch, people!

Of the Malones, we have Elliott on the bass, and Brandon on drums, above.
