Pash, Exit Clov, and Carol Bui at Black Cat Mainstage (20070831)

I came for Carol Bui, but missed her as I usually do when she opens (stop opening!).

The noteworthiest part of this show is the continued climb of tired sounds. Both Pash and Exit Clov excel at sounding like standard mid- to late 1990s college-radio female-lead bands. I have no idea why this trend is happening, and why it attracts such a crowd. In any event, the lead singer of Pash has a great voice–kind of the female equivalent of the lead singer of Convertible Jennifers (MD). I should note that I enjoyed Pash’s latest album enough.
