While Sleigh Bells were the headliner, I was more intrigued with the (mis-placed?) Class Actress as an opener. But before we get to that, this show also introduced me to Jel as the very first opener. Cool shit. I don't know the name of that little electro-box he plays, but it's fun.
Class Actress was up next, and I was still a little curious of her being on this bill. It started off a little weak and did get better, but there was definitely something missing from her show. Something felt off the whole night. And by "off" I mean, I've seen her before and thought she was great. This time… eh. 3 on DAKS.
We had another show to go to, so we only stayed for a couple songs of Sleigh Bells, but it was you'd expect. Ear-shattering, power pop/rock. Definitely a time and place for that, and I can appreciate what these guys are doing - but doesn't feel like they have the staying power.
