When the two men of Lightning Bolt perform, they assemble their instruments in the middle of the audience. The drummer wears a ski mask with his mic taped to the inside, the guitarist seizures about, and the music they make with the crowd whiplashing around them sounds like werewolves riding a triple-loop roller coaster with a hurricane rolling in. In short, it’s a life changing experience channeled through a few large amps. If one’s ultimate goal was to have a deeply fulfilling existence, attending this musical event was imperative.
I went to a friend’s house and watched Hitchcock’s Lifeboat, which didn’t feature any wailing guitars or sweaty art-school punks. Just lots of salt water and a little bit of sunburnt tension. I drank a beer, too. There goes my chance at a colorful life.
