Hockey @ King Tut's, 20 Sep

Event preview by Chris Buckle.
Published 21 August 2009

Not long out of their wrapper and Hockey’s party vibe is already proving as divisive as yeast spread. Their indie-rock shapes, tinged with electro-pop bleeps and whistles (and who isn’t electro-tinged these days?) would make the perfect accompaniment to Judd Apatow’s more adolescently-oriented material, aurally evoking fictional teenage years spent sipping keg beer from red cups. On the down side they’re also brimful of overblown power-poses - though, luckily for them, such enthusiasm will look exponentially less ridiculous as the venues increase in size. For now, they’ll make do with the diminutive Tut's, supported by ace synth-smith Deastro.
