Cults rocked Soundlab tonight in downtown Buffalo. They didn't take the stage will about midnight and played for roughly 35 minutes (which is to be expected since their full length LP hasn't even been released yet) but it was definitely worth the $12 admission. They sounded crisp clear and just like the recorded songs.
The highlight of the evening may be a tie between the sexiness of the lead singer of Cults, Madeline Follin, and the complete 100% meltdown of the second opening band Magic Kids. It was quite hilarious to hear the lead singer of MK complain that all he could hear was feedback and that he wanted to go to bed. After five songs or so the band just walked off. I don't blame him, they had about four sound check and everything sounded like shit but, c'mon man, man up. I had two good sarcastic comments "this isn't MSG bro" and later "he didn't commit suicide yet" when he poked his head out during the Cults set. Jeez, get a better sound guy Soundlab, and Magic Kids, take some of the blame.
The Cults self titled debut album drops June 7th. Their live show consisted of the lead singer, two guitarists, a bassist and a keyboard. The lead guitar played keys on one of the songs also. One final highlight was a shout out by the lead guitarist to Kurt Cobain on the date of his death 4/5/94. My suggestion don't miss them next time they're around.
