Boxes of Squares
This Greenwich-based quartet (with a drummer hailing from Saratoga Springs) are high schoolers with one foot in Starless and Bible Black-era King Crimson. It’s hard to tell whether they’re aware of that reference point, but it matters not. They could use more focus on their songs’ beginnings and endings, but in between they sure do get some ferociously hypnotic cerebral grooves going. There are vocals (and some angst-heavy titles like “A Brief Study of Existentialism” and “Fireworks Make Me Feel Lonely”), but it’s the instrumental onslaught that mesmerizes and impresses.
| were pretty excited about this! maybe we'll be able to play some better venues. |

Use the review for all it's worth. When you call for gigs or whatever say, "we were in the 'best of' issue of the paper..."
Don't forget to keep that writeup, they're nice to look back on!
