Matt of Cage The Elephant gets up-close and personal in Providence last summer.<\/p><\/div>\n

Well ok, the show is<\/em> sold out, but I just love these guys and they’re totally crazy, so I have to give them a little nod. My first time seeing them was at this uber-cool Providence Block Party<\/a> last summer, and they were really fantastic. <\/p>\n

CTE is kinda southern rock, very punk in ferociousness and sensibility, with a revivalist preacher vibe running through their music, which completely makes sense as they’re from Bowling Green, Kentucky. All this is synthesized into a very unique and powerful, funky sound, with singer-songwriter Matt Schultz’s introspective, soul-searching lyrics at its core. Their live performances are these crazed audience-participation affairs, and Matt’s demon-purging stage persona is truly a sight to behold.<\/p>\n

But don’t be fooled by their out-of-control rambunctiousness and rocking fury – there’s some serious stuff going on here as well:<\/p>\n

\u201cDriven by religion
\nRunning backwards down a one way road
\nA course collision, split decision
\nTryin\u2019 to save your soul
\nManifest destiny
\nIs just a fancy word for murder
\nI\u2019ve got this feeling
\nIt\u2019s gonna stop\u201d<\/p>\n

– Lotus (from their debut album<\/a>)<\/p>\n

Joining them at the Paradise will be New York’s As Tall As Lions<\/a> (melodic with cool vocals, harmonies and thoughtful lyrics) and the pleasantly wacky and psychedelic Morning Teleportation<\/a> from Portland, Oregon (oh man, theramin! hopefully they bring that on the road with ’em. nothin’ like a theramin!). This sounds like a very cool<\/em> show. Shame I have to work.<\/p>\n

P.S. If you’ve got a ticket to the show, be sure to nanner them<\/a> for me.<\/p>\n
