| Looming and Pale Lungs Live
Saw Looming and Pale Lungs (as well as Smol Data and Crash the Calm) live tonight at the Amityville Music Hall in Amityville, NY. | | 6 |  | Casanova
Sincerely
This band opened the show tonight, but unfortunately I didn't get to see them. Picked up their CD, though. | | 5 |  | Smol Data
Smol Data: The Demo
This band was just finishing when I arrived. I only heard about a song and a half, so i didn't get much of an impression of them, other than they were loud and kind of interesting. I like their demo up on Bandcamp, though. | | 4 |  | Crash the Calm
How've You Been
I was impressed by this band. They're a heavy alternative band with a vocalist who reminds me of Vinnie Caruana from I Am the Avalanche and Movielife. | | 3 |  | Pale Lungs
Strawberry
This is a shoegaze band from Nashville, TN. The thing that struck me the most about them was excellent dynamics. They have a quiet intensity to them. | | 2 |  | Looming
Nailbiter
Got the chance to see "that voice" aka Jessica Knight live, although I didn't get the full treatment. She and the band's drummer/vocalist Brandon Carnes (playing guitar tonight) are doing this mini-tour with Pale Lungs a 2-piece. | | 1 |  | Looming
Seed
It was great to see them live. They played mostly stuff from the new album, although they also did "Cotton Mouth", the best song from their debut. The full band is scheduled to start a new tour in February, touring the East Coast of the U.S. opening for Tigers Jaw. | |

01.26.18 | There was also another band called Only Sibling who played in between Casanova and Smol Data. Unfortunately, I didn't catch them, and they don't have a recording out that I know of, so I couldn't add them to this list. | Divaman
01.26.18 | Just as an aside, I had the chance to meet Jessica and Brandon from Looming, and they couldn't be nicer people. This is one of those indie bands that's working their butts off, and not making a ton of cash doing it, so I really hope they do well.
For anyone interested, here was their setlist:
