![]() ![]() Vocalist/founding member Jake Bolander’s screams blew me away and their use of EDM in their music, and in between songs, was absolutely genius… it reminded me of the way that The Browning gets people hyped at their shows and it was a really fun set to watch. Easily the most unique sound of the night and it seemed a good portion of the crowd knew who they were, as I saw quite a few people singing along. While the band describes themselves as post-hardcore… I feel that’s a bit of a broad category for the style of music that they play. Again, until this show, I, unfortunately, had not heard of them. The most surprising, odd-sounding performance of the night came from Aureate. It was a great way to start off the night and they got the small-ish crowd that had arrived there by their set time off their feet. ![]() Their energy was off the charts and vocalist Jaron Geil’s voice sounded just as if they were in the studio, a rare treat in a world where everything is over-processed. While I didn’t get to catch most of their set, I was able to catch about 2 and a half songs from these guys, including the aforementioned single, which closed out their set. However, when I decided to look them up on Facebook and check out their latest single, “Nothing For You Here,” I was instantly blown away. My first introduction to Starting An Earthquake, honestly, was when I found out they were going to be opening this show. ![]() I had the opportunity to attend the 2nd date of the tour and was absolutely mind-blown by what I saw. In support of that album, they put together an amazing headlining tour package consisting of themselves, label-mates The Funeral Portrait and an amazing, up-and-coming band from WI by the name of Versus Me. Our good friends Famous Last Words released their 3rd studio album, The Incubus back in September and it is one of the best albums you’ll hear this year, hands down.
