Mercury Music Picks: Dim Wit's Farewell Show, Portland's New Elliott Smith, and Portland Music News
"Underestimate Capricorn and Aquarius season at your own peril, friends. While there are fewer touring acts coming through town this time of year, it's an excellent time to catch up on your locals. But what am I saying? We've got Uniiqu3, Steve Gunn, and Rehash gracing Portland with their presence this week! Plus a bunch of local talent to boot."
"Those tattered Warped Tour tees just not cutting it anymore? Then this is the gig for you. Yes, all the bands on this bill shred harder than a Tillamook cheese grater, but have you locked in with Gekiretsu yet? They're a bunch of fuckin' metal nerds, originally forming the band in Spokane, recently moving down to PDX to stomp on fascist necks."
Portland's week of concerts features touring acts Uniiqu3, Steve Gunn, and Rehash alongside numerous local bands. Mercury Music Picks pauses next week and resumes the week of January 26. Hardcore and metal shows include Labrat, Skitzo Toxin, Verdant Force, and Gekiretsu, with aggressive, fast-paced sets and Gekiretsu noted as a Spokane-formed metal outfit now based in Portland. Dim Wit's farewell show marks Jeff Tuyay's upcoming move from Portland to New York City, with a sound blending punk, outsider electronics, and indie elements. Multiple all-ages and venue details accompany the listings.
