Here are a couple older videos we've never posted from one our most adored bands The Nocturnes. Two are from that stunner of a show back in 2009 at Synchronicity and one is from the Unknown Theater (also from 2009). The album they released in late 2008, A Year of Spring, completely blew us away and has remained as one of our favorite records of all time, which is why we were terrorizing so many of their shows that year.
We actually haven't seen these videos since we shot them and so it's nice to hear how "London" (now called "London Town" on the new album Aokigahara) has developed over time. Also, the untitled track has never been recorded but the band says they may try playing it at their show later this month. What's also great is that you can see why we totally fell in love with Ms. Rundle back then. Her guitar playing is just perfection and she has one of the most seductive voices in all of Los Angeles. We've been honored to present a few small Nocturnes shows since then but we'd be more pleased if they were playing the arenas their epic rock songs deserve to be heard in. Go see this band live.
Just in time for the holidays, you can download their new album Aokigahara for free for a limited time on their Bandcamp.
The band plays 12/29 at The Satellite with Little Red Lung for only $5.
