about

At 9:45, Kansas City three-piece Lazy took the stage. For those with a passing familiarity with Lazy, a quick tangent may be helpful. This three-piece version of Lazy had performed as "BB Gun" as recently as a few weeks ago, but at that time that band was described as the side-project of Lazy frontman Brock Potucek. However, Potucek has since disbanded the old Lazy line up, and has now rechristened "BB Gun" as "Lazy." Do they still play the old Lazy songs? No, instead Potucek's move is reminiscent of Mark E. Smith who once noted that any group that included him could be the Fall, up to and including "me and your granny on bongos." So Lazy is dead, long live Lazy. With that history lesson, and all the taxonomy behind us, let's turn our attention to the stage.
Lazy is a post-punk band in the grand, 1978 tradition of the genre. Amazing bass lines delivered by Potucek defined most of the band's set, while the guitar work of Brenton Wheeler provided bursts of angular energy, and new drummer Billy Belzer added primal rhythms powered by his snare and floor tom. Both Potucek and Wheeler provided vocals, but it was the complicated compositions full of electricity and sharpened edges that took center stage. Dare I saw that the new Lazy is even better than the old?

about

Lazy Kansas City, Missouri

Started in 2009 in KC as a loose knit collaborative multifarious guitar band which seeked to challenge punk dogma fascists and to perform live performance rituals as much as possible. With a new line up nearly every year, slight name changes, and calculated amateurism, the "band" that was never a "band" disbanded in 2015. ... more

Time is a Vulture that is Always Circling

Dark and brooding post-punk perfection; subdued in parts; punchy in others...tracks like "Cavern" tap into the throbbing, punk vibe and reverb-laced vocals that warms my sullen, tattered heart. Some superior tracks here; no doubt HEALERS are quite familiar with the classics, though influences from multiple genres abound. Not quite as industrial or ethereal as some cold wave stuff,but post-punk/goth enthusiasts can get in line...Great record. Michael F.
