The actual demise and cosmic destruction of Langerado Music Festival rained upon South Florida clubs with a thousand little shiny nuggets of musical opportunity.
Thus, Bardot landed London indie group Yuck, a five-piece band consisting of boys and girls who conjure throwback '90s rock with a heavy edge and low-fi noise that bring it into the 2010s.
This crew's self-titled debut came out this year on Fat Possum. And already, Yuck is all the rage with Pitchfork-wise peeps.
The shoegaze revival really should start and stop here as to not bring back too many memories of plaid flannel and greasy slacker hair. Even the name, Yuck, is such an angsty teenage title, perfect for emotional guitar strumming and sad singing.
Lace up those Converse (high tops, black, natch) and march your nostalgic ass over to Bardot, that tiny speakeasy on N. Miami Avenue. It'll provide you with the perfect setting for standing with arms crossed and head nodding.
Yuck. Saturday, October 8. Bardot, 3456 N. Miami Ave., Miami. The show starts at 10 p.m. and tickets cost $15 to $20 plus fees via showclix.com. Call 305-576-7750 or visit bardotmiami.com.
