the Jesus Lizard NZ Tour: San Fran, Wellington

The Jesus Lizard live at San Fran, Wellington on Sun, Oct 12, 7:30 PM. Free entry. Lineup, start time and tickets on Ckord.

After initially calling it a day in 1999, the Jesus Lizard officially return full time to save us from the current state of musical mediocrity with their latest album, Rack. A blistering resurgence of the so-called ‘noise rock’ they helped define alongside contemporaries Big Black, Flipper, The Birthday Party, with their previous and most noted albums Head, Goat and Liar. For those of us who live in fear of the reunion album and subsequent tour, the Jesus Lizard thankfully display not only the same chaotic and dark nihilism of their earlier careers but also the maturity and seasoning of a band riding a wave of renewed and reinvigorated form. Once slated by famed engineer Steve Albini as “the greatest band I’ve ever seen’ the Jesus Lizard not only lived up to this lofty praise in their prime but continue to do so in their advancing years. David Yow still leads the charge as the maniacally possessed frontman entering crowds with reckless abandon and a stamina that much younger vocalists
