I've been meaning to catch local 7-piece (!) Sure Juror for quite some time now; last night Jen and I finally got the opportunity to check them out during the last night of their Pianos residency.
After listening to the 4 featured tracks on the band's MySpace page, I was itching to hear how the songs from their latest album, Smut, translated into a live setting. The answer: very well. My favorite of the night was the title track which is a perfect combination of early Smiths with a dash of Godspeed! You Black Emperor. Believe it!
Though the band swears (as we chatted with them after the show) that they ran through a setlist of ten songs, Jen and I felt like the show went by in 10-12 minutes (turns out it was just under a half hour). We did enjoy their set but were aching for some more. Perhaps next time we will get our wish.
Intrigued? They will be at Union Hall with Muggabears (sponsored by Battering Room) on 2/16!
