Django Django
The British psych quartet are bringing their multifarious collection of instruments to The Metro.
Overview
I want to describe this band's music as "jangly". Probably in part because their name is almost onomatopoeic, but also because they make excellent use of clashing drums and oversized tamborines.
Django Django are pegged as a "psychedelic quartet" but that suggests the only thing setting them apart from other psychedelic quartets is that they're not from Brooklyn. For one thing Django Django have far more inventive instruments. Besides drums and tamborine they have a guitarist, a synth operator and what sounds like a rather impressive collection of indigenous wind instruments, which they blend together to make a modern sound that takes all the addictive rhythm of African sounds and none of the cringey cultural appropriation.
Anyway, way more fun than trying to describe them is seeing them live. In January Django Django will be putting on one special headline show at The Metro to accompany their Falls and Southbound appearances, and seeing as last year they sold out two Oxford Art Factorys you had better get in quick.
Update: Django Django will be supported at their Sydney show by ex-Red Riders duo Palms and collaborative electro supergroup Twinsy. If you still don't have your tickets yet, remedy that here and now.
