Boston Phoenix: Winter Boston Music Preview 2011

Wednesday, December 29th, 2010

RIBS + THE CINNAMON FUZZ | T.T. The Bear’s | January 28 | Those who appreciated the harder edge RIBS brought to Boston’s indie tableau with British Brains are in for more treats: the double A-side Locrian Singles continues the young quartet’s thunderous experimentation with guitar sonics, crafting a pulsating sound that borrows as much from Muse as it does Deftones. The Cinnamon Fuzz bring balance to the bill, countering RIBS’ stomp with their glossy, rock-pop disco dust. Boston’s promising duo is joined by a New York pair: Bridges & Powerlines and Fan-Tan.

10 Brookline St, Cambridge | $10 | 617.492.0082 or ttthebears.com

“RIBS are just awesome. They play intense, moody rock that begs to be listened to over and over. They spent 2010 steadily building momentum with a string of powerful gigs and are poised to really break out in the new year.”

According to the Cistercian writer Caesar of Heisterbach, one of the leaders of the Crusader army, the Papal legate Arnaud-Amaury, when asked by a Crusader how to distinguish the Cathars from the Catholics, answered: “Caedite eos! Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius” – “Kill them all. God will know his own.”
