Together Pangea, Meat Market, Normal Babies

Part of the increasingly omnipresent Burger Records universe, together PANGEA have hit the pavement hard in 2014, touring in support of their awesomely named full-length, Badillac. The record finds them flying their ’90s flag proudly, with a huge guitar sound reminiscent of Smashing Pumpkins and Pinkerton-era Weezer. This is a band not afraid of solos, but they’ve retained the knack for hooks that made their previous records stand out. Since forming in 2008, they’ve shared the stage with a veritable who’s who of garage luminaries, including Ty Segall, Wavves and Black Lips. This will be the first of two area shows for the band in the coming months — watch for them when the Burger Records Caravan rolls through in October.
