[DID NOT ATTEND: October 11, 2024] Public Memory / Mint Field
I found out about this show just a few days before it was supposed to happen. It happened to be on the same night as Yard Act AND Charly Bliss, so no matter how much I want to see Mint Field (and I want to see them quite a lot), I wasn’t going to pick this show over those two.
Especially since I think Public Memory was opening. I’ve never heard of Public Memory. And Interlocuter says of the band
Public Memory is the latest project of musician Robert Toher. He was formerly a member of the band APSE, which had a distinct take on postpunk and post rock, and his subsequent project ERAAS rooted that moody propulsive rock sound into a more electronic-based realm. Public Memory continues in this dark and lovely musical direction.
Neither of those other bands is familiar to me, but from what I can gather Public Memory is primarily slow moody gothy synth. I kind of like it.
But for me the real treat would be Mint Field. Here’s just a few great blurbs about them: (more…)
