A friend of a friend recently heard Monsters Are Waiting on a certain popular local radio station recently and asked if we knew who they were to which we replied, "KROQ sucks." Nevertheless, what we do know is that half of adolescent America will be kneedeep in love with Ms. Fery in a matter of seconds.
Playing their 823rd show in June in support of their dandy new record Fascination, MAW finished up their Spaceland residency with some gusto as they prepare for their summer trek. Luckily we happened to stick around after the masterful arena rock showing of Tsar that night because they've gotten even better since our last encounter. Most notable is Fery's freedom around the stage now that she's no longer chained to that Korg that took up half the stage. So much freedom that, at one point, a semi-stagedive turned into a lazy collapse into our arms. Thank you, gravity.
Monsters Are Waiting perform at the Troubadour on 7/10 with The Shys and Van Gunn.
