Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol at Mohawk

By: Laurie Gallardo

Run to the hills! Who knows what havoc these intergalactic fiends will wreak?! Though really, it’s pointless to resist the ruthless energy of Burger Babes…FROM OUT SPACE! as the gravitational beam draws you in. And by “ruthless,” the AMM means the beefy feast unleashed by Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol on their full length debut – over-the-top, pedal to the metal madness, the kind of rock bred from chaos and a healthy dose ridiculousness. This guitar (Leo Lydon), bass (Aaron Metzdorf) and drum (Sean St. Germain) sounds deceptively more mighty than that of a trio. Let’s just say the fans are ravenous for it.

A tour is in the works for this summer, and a new album is due this fall. The thing is, you need to experience this band live. Catch this Burger Patrol on duty tomorrow night, Wednesday July 6, at Mohawk on the inside stage. The bill includes metal monsters Koningsor and doom punk outfit The Vinous. Doors at 8 p.m. Hellacious? I should hope so.

  • *PLEASE NOTE: The MP3 in this post erroneously states the Rickshaw Billie’s Burger Patrol show at the Mohawk is tonight, when it’s actually tomorrow night (July 6). Apologies for the error.

What’s Yr Damage

Following the breakup of their previous psych-gaze band Creepoid, Anna and Patrick Troxell forged an electro post-punk dynamic as the duo Lovelorn. And now the ATX-by-way-of Philly outfit is ramping things up with two new additions to the line-up, guitarists Steve Pike and Kyle Harris. No doubt extra shreds will add even more discordant dimensions […]
