No one ever accused the Night Beats of being a lazy band, and their most recent activity has been no different. With the release of their wild-eyed music video for their song, "The Seven Poison Wonders," off of their upcoming LP, Sonic Bloom, the psych-rockers have kept themselves very busy. Their upcoming show at The New Frontier will be their last in these parts before the road warriors take off on yet another extended tour of the U.S. and Europe in support of their new album. These past couple years of near-constant touring have honed the Night Beats into a finely churning machine. Their slash-and-burn psychedelia has only grown in power, and their presence on stage has become massive and threatening. Rock reviews like to talk about brains or faces melting, but the Night Beats are more about incineration.
