Saturday night at The Blind Pig shared a diverse musical journey with Ann Arbor. Over the course of three acts, Horse Bomb, Odd Reality and The Goopies took the audience on a roller coaster ride of a show. Whether it was original songs or post-hardcore cuts from across eras of rock, the audience met each drop, twist and turn screaming with their hands up.<\/p>\n
As the first act of the night, Horse Bomb set the chaotic tone of their set immediately. A rowdy cover of Radiohead\u2019s \u201cCreep\u201d featuring an audience member transformed into a whirl of distorted noise for the song\u2019s transition. The lights shone on the stage and the instruments \u2014 a guitar, drums and a keyboard \u2014 built off the crescendo at the end of their rendition.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The rest of their set continued with the same level of predictability \u2014 that is to say, none. Horse Bomb bounced around between crazy distortions, drum combos and heavy instrumentals. While at first hesitant to move to their sound, the audience started to buy in. A circle quickly formed in the pit as a crowd began to fill The Blind Pig. The energy was up, and the crowd was ready for the rest of the night.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Following Horse Bomb was Detroit post-hardcore group Odd Reality. Odd Reality has the unassuming, shtick-less look of all the best hardcore bands \u2014 they\u2019re like those four guys you sorta knew in high school wearing the same old T-shirts and blue jeans, right up until the moment they start playing.<\/p>\n
