Last night I went out to see Kill The Peace play at the 1011. I had just read an interview they did for Edge Magazine and sorely disappointed with the article. The band had a lot of say about who they are as a band and what it means to be in a band to them. Too bad for horrible writing. Anyway Seeing Kill the Peace took them down from the pedestal I had them on. I heard good things about them and loved their political agenda. I feel if you write meaningful lyrics and want music with a message perhaps have people hear your lyrics.
They gave me the same sound over and over again. I know they can produce audible lyrics but they'd rather not. I couldn't feel any energy with what they were trying to give me. It felt like other "hardcore" bands I've seen in the area, why do you tell me what your song is about if I can't understand your lyrics. idgi. They were an obvious open for the band that followed, Edhochuli, who undoubtedly stole the show from Kill the Peace. Their female lead is cute and shy but produces a sound that scares some people and annoys others. She is defiantly the image of what she represents a political, diy, hardcore singer girly girl in short shorts and a tank top but honestly I'm not impressed.
I thought every song pretty much sounded the same as the last and that's not just her fault. I remember in high school people would come out to see a band with a girl in it just to see if she was any good. and usually they didn't measure up. I see this band as a family and they won't change their sister of a singer. She does deliver what this band represents and wants to be. It's just kill the peace isn't my cup of tea.
