School of Seven Bells @ The Garage

School of Seven Bells is Benjamin Curtis and Alejandra Deheza. As befitting any musical enterprise linked to an ex-member of Texan prog-rockers Secret Machines (Curtis), this New York based duo make scarily massive music, albeit with a fundamentally pop heart, as recent singles The Night and Lafaye prove. Their unabashedly ambitious approach to making music feels curiously refreshing in 2012 and those attending the Garage tonight should be prepared to be schooled in the art of icy guitar blitzkrieg. Third long-player Ghostory is out now on Full Time Hobby.
