Dark Meat in New Haven on Thursday

Another recent Vice Records signing will be at Two Boots (277 Fairfield Ave.) in Bridgeport on April 10 with Monotonix. That signing would be Dark Meat. The psych-rock band consisting of about six thousand members, or a still lofty 17.

There's also a few things you need to know about today. Tonight is night two of the band's kick off for their big tour. If you happen to be in Brooklyn you can find them at Union Pool. Today also marks the rerelease of Universal Indians with a few live tracks tacked on. Finally, if you want to get a sneak at Monotonix they will be in Danbury tonight at Larry's on Elm St.

Amazon's product description of Universal Indians actually does a fantastic job:
"Imagine the Stooges meeting Crazy Horse with killer marching band horns, wailing gospel backing vocals, ripping Eddie Hazel guitar leads, and Albert Ayler free jazz freakouts. Athens' Dark Meat, a 17-piece hippie rock fest featuring double drums, boundless guitars, massive horns, strings, and ensemble voices, has been giving earth-shaking performances all over the south for the last three years."
