Show Reviews: Titus Andronicus

Titus Andronicus plays rock and roll music.  They played rock and roll music at El Rey last week and I was there. Good times were had, as evidenced in the following video:

And this is what I really appreciate about this band.  With three guitars and rarely more than three chords strummed loud and fast, they make a powerful and unpretentious musical statement that makes me dance and sing along and feel good.

They played some new stuff, and they played a lot of my favorite tunes from my favorite Titus album. Like this one:

In conclusion, Patrick Stickles is a straight-up genius, Titus Andronicus forever, the enemy is everywhere, and Pete, get off the stage dude!
