icy demons @ tonic



so i went to go see icy demons the other night at tonic, and the show was pretty awesome. it was sort of a surprise to me as i wasn't sure how i would like this sort of freak music. but i did like need new body and man man, so it would make sense that i would like icy demons too. but i found that i like icy demons so much more than nnb or mm. they have this sort of "freaked out cruise ship" music that really bugs me out in a good way. i bought some buttons from them. one said "internet flirting" with an X over it, and the other was a hot pink icy demons pin. jedd bought a couple good ones but gave me the one i coveted that said "shit is fucked." we decided that their band name was the perfect name for them because it would be the kind of wacked out music you may hear if you are at the north pole. i described the band's music as the perfect score to a tim burton film set on a cruise ship with ghosts and ghouls. like rocky horror on a cruise ship or something. they are playing todd p's show at glasslands tomorrow night (saturday) so be sure to check that shit out.

oh, and PS, the band on before icy demons was called nymph, and they made me feel so uncomfortable with their spacey, hippie asian girl jumping up and down with her jingle bells. i think a friend of mine described it best -- it was like watching your grandparents have sex on stage. sexual but in a horrific way.
