Hail Plankton & Horcrux Show Review!

Last night at McGann's, we had two stellar bands rock out with hour long sets each. Playing to an excited crowd, Hail Plankton took the stage first and delivered a tight set featuring songs like Hermit King and Special Treasure.

Andy, Pete, and Matt were phenomenal and did their city of Boston proud destroying the stage with deadly riffs that left us wanting more.


Horcrux took the stage next. Hail Plankton was a tough act to follow but Horcrux rose to the occasion with high energy and an awesome setlist.

And just when we thought the show couldn't get any better, Horcrux surprised us all with an breathtaking metal rendition of "Paparazzi".


We've got more awesome live local music coming your way this weekend at our favorite venue, McGann's. Headlining TONIGHT (July 9) is Milquetoast & Company playing our Hot Summer Sun Rock Out show. Straight out of Boston, Milquetoast & Co. has been described by the Boston Pheonix as "Angular, high-intensity Americana". Tickets are $8 at the door, but you can get yours cheaper here !


Tomorrow, we've got Johnny Stranger headlining another awe-inspiring show playing with Suit of Hair, Nothing to No One, Bright Night and Brian Carroll. This show is also $8 but you can get them for a mere 5 bucks here at FNiceRecords.com.

Another Great Skum of the Earth Wednesday Punk Night

Skum of the Earth Wednesday Punk Night at McGann's Boston is certainly going strong with another great one last night. Fan and musicians alike all brought their 'A' game for a night of drinking, dancing, and singing at McGann's.

Jumper started the night right off with some really great stuff that took me right back to when I was their age, or at least how I remember it. They showed huge energy and some really fantastic musical talent.

Four Point Restraint followed up with a nice long set that took the audience across up and down and brought smiles all around. Check out this video of them.

Last on the bill, The Few And The Far tore the place up. Everyone got involved and there were many guest vocals and sharing of mics.

Chestnut Growler arranges these wonderful Wednesdays, so be sure to get at him if you've got a punk band you'd like to see at McGann's. All the photos and video in the post are courtsey of him. You can also signup for our newletter to the right, which will keep you up to date on all F Nice's great live music concerts.



Enjoy the 4th everyone. If you are in Boston this Friday night I highly recommend Hannah & the Bloodlines, Torpedo Rodeo, and Abbey Parcellin at McGann's starting at 9pm.

Dadfight & The IZA Show Review

Both Dadfight and The IZA took the stage last night at McGann's with The Black Ayahuasca and absolutely rocked our faces off. There were guitars smashing into cymbals, slipping and sliding on stage, and just overall awesomeness.

The Inevitable Zombie Apocalypse brought so much energy to the stage. Dan jumped up on amps, hair flying and accidentally unplugged things left and right with an epic powerslide... all while keeping the music tight as ever.


Dadfight ended the evening with style as Vlad busted out his shiny new Jaguar and that guitar was just as stunning as their sound. Earlier in the day, both bands played live on The Boston Local Music Show on UnregularRadio.com hosted by F Nice's finest, Dex Ter and DAve Crespo.

Deadfish Rocked All Asia, More Shows Coming Up This Week!

This past Saturday was humid and hot, but inside All Asia Deadfish kept things cool as a part of F Nice's all ages show. This shining young group is from Littleton, Mass and their style is reminiscent of Sublime with reggae, rock, and dub influences.
The band is currently working on their first full-length album and rocked All Asia with some brand new songs, one of which they had just finished minutes before playing.


Despite a scarce crowd, Deadfish played a great set and looked awesome doing it with their glittering instruments; Rapper T-buck was featured in a few of their songs, keeping the sound tight and upbeat. You can see Deadfish at one of their upcoming show July 11th at the Comcast Center (myspace.com/deadfishlittleton).



The live music is continuing this week and through the weekend with another Scum of the Earth show tonight and a great lineup tomorrow night.

Thursday June 24th at McGann's is sure to be a mouth watering show and features:

Dadfight!
The IZA
The Black Ayahuasca

This show is 21+, $8 at the door and $5 for pre-sale tickets which you can purchase here.

DCAP Birthday Bash Review

Last night's show at McGann's Boston rocked so hard the rain almost stopped. DCAP had two birthday's to celebrate, and the audince really dug it as things got hot on the floor.

Rocket Rocket opened the night on a handful of Cosmos and blew things up. Lost On Liftoff came on next and built the energy up even higher; there is just something so proper about white ties.

Moonstone Lady played a great set including a song they had not played since the band was formed, and kept things at full boil for 'Crespo.

Then DAve Crespo's After Party got on stage and things got CRAZY. For those who have not seen DCAP in a while, their lineup has gotten real serious, and the band puts on blow-you-away shows.

We've got really great shows coming up this week like Destroy Babylon at The Regent Theater, and Voltaire at Church. Keep up to date on F Nice events by joining our mailing list.

Sneak Peek at New The Yer Moms Shirt

Alrighty folks, here it is. A new The Yer Moms shirt for their reunion / farwell show this Friday the 11th at McGann's Pub in downtown Boston.

These will be available at the show only and in limited quantity. Music starts at 9 and we expect to already be sold out by then. A special shirt for a special night because not all good things can last forever.

Whether you get a shirt or not, the whole night is going to be crazy entertainment with plenty of Narragansett beer to be drank.

The show involves many very special guests using a range of instruments which rivial a marching band. Supposedly The Yer Moms entire catalog will be performed, but that is just a rumor circling the Boston underground. Even if the word turns out false you can be sure all the fan favorites such as "30% Approval Rating" "$5 Blowjob" "I'm Not A Liberal" and "The Pescetarian Song" will be heard as well as some early songs you may not even know exist.

In addition to The Yer Moms, the night's music will feature the Sommerville Symphony Orchestra, Swell, and Iceberg Young and Tea Musket.

McGann's Pub is right by North Station in downtown Boston. The Yer Moms have practially rocked this place down before and this Friday September 11th will be a performance for the history books.

We are real proud to have the people from Narragansett beer helping us out on this show, so make sure ya tip a can to em while you're down there too. "You buy a case, they'll build a brewery"

See ya there!

Matt
