Brutal Knights,
American Cheeseburger
Go Bar
Toronto punk is really hot, eh?
While Montreal has attracted atten
tion for its literate indie-pop scene,
Toronto has fans and labels on both
sides of the border beating their
heads against the wall with its
reinterpretation of, and homage to,
early-'80s punk and hardcore. Bands
like Career Suicide, Fucked Up and
Violent Minds have all drawn atten
tion from punks, label proprietors
and press, aping everyone from
Poison Idea to Minor Threat.
One contemporary, Brutal Knights, ventures into the Deep South to lay waste to the
Go Bar stage. These Knights send a party-fueled toast to the Los Angeles bands of yes
teryear with lyrics smothered in GG Allin-isms like "I Wanna Die," "Not Fun" and "Grow
Up, Throw Up."
Before arriving in Athens, Brutal Knights make a stop at the South by Southwest
festival in Austin, TX. But don't look to them for guidance on whom to check out at the
festival. "WeTl see what we see," says singer Nick Flanagan. "There are so many shows
that we'U probably all split up and go on separate adventures that give us hemorrhoids
and sunburns."
This isn't Brutal Knights' first time in Athens, nor is it the group's first show with
local wrecking crew American Cheeseburger. "Those guys rule. They mentor us. We mentor
them," says Flanagan. "We had the best time last time, and I hope to crowd surf for nine
songs straight this time, instead of the measly six we did last time."
This show may also include more than just music, as aspiring stand-up comedian
Flanagan will likely pepper the Knights' set with caustic, blue humor. "Say the word,"
says Flanagan, "and I will light up your stages and your doobies." [Scott Reid]
