![]() ![]() Texans Narrow Head next brought out their great balance of Grunge/Gaze/Sludge with some super heavy moments interspersed with the more reflective stretches while always sounding absolutely massive. Young but already vets of Reading Fest and Lollapalooza and tours with the Melvins and The Sword, this is a band heading in the right direction. ![]() It sounds great, and the kinetic energy flowing off the stage into the crowd was undeniable as they blasted through songs from their 2022 debut album “Once Bit Never Bored”. Have you ever wondered what a song would sound like with a bass and a singer playing along with a drum solo the whole way through? This is your band! They can groove, and things do settle down to what you might think of as a drum beat here and there, but don’t get used to it because we’re off to 93 other things shortly. Layne sings and thrashes a Fender bass throughout the set as Myles gives the drums a beating the likes of which you’ve probably never seen. Myles and Layne Ulrichs’ Taipei Houston fits in stylistically somewhere between the first two. ![]() The Fonda Theatre stage has hosted a bunch of duo bands over the years like Japandroids, Black Pistol Fire, and The Ting Tings. Then you arrived at the venue only to have your face melted off by Lars Ulrich’s kids, 5 Houstonians, and the World’s Best American band. The walk to the Fonda Theatre was fraught with falling palm fronds and dust getting blown in your eyes and clumps of straggler Amoeba Music customers blocking the sidewalk. It was a cold and blustery night Tuesday. ![]()
