June marks the first time Golden Bear has ever played beyond Texas state lines. The Austin-based five-piece has been busy honing its indie rock sound in the Lone Star State, generating a fanbase and some serious critical buzz. It seems to have paid off: SPIN recently featured the band as one of its bands of the day, The Daily Texan at the University of Texas named its self-titled 2006 debut one of the ten best albums of the year and our friends at Austinist have been raving for ages now about what Chris "Grizzle" Gregory, Matt Gardiner, Andy McAllister, Brett Pennington and Jamie Reaves are doing.
For the uninitiated, Kaiju Big Battel is a wrestling league of sorts, in which competitors dressed as imagined Japanese B-movie monsters compete in miniature cityscapes - sort of a live interpretation of Mechagodzilla vs. Godzilla. There is, naturally, an extensive and amusing back story to explain this silliness, involving (of course) a galactic battle between good and evil. Apparently, the evil Dr. Cube and his posse (the "Rogues") are now taking the quest for evil victory beyond the ring, attempting to brainwash the Tufts campus with radio waves and convert students to his evil minions. To combat this, some good guys ("Heroes") have formed (surprise) a rock band that will counteract the radio wave brainwashing. So really it's just a rock show this evening at P.A.'s lounge in Somerville. ("3 Bands, One Cause," says the website. The cause is defeating Dr. Cube and the bands are Z.W.A., Peelander-Z, and Poison Ivy League.) But it promises to be an extremely amusing, absurdist rock show with many weird costumes, and, we imagine, some wrestling.
