Blank Hellscape, Touch Girl Apple Blossom, Guiding Light, Wet Dip, Gerard Cosloy

“In Austin we play any and every show. We play with indie bands, punk shows, raves, we play whatever,” Blank Hellscape vocalist Andrew Nogay told the Chronicle last month. Such is the case for the experimental electronic act’s album release/tour kickoff show, which features opening sets by Matador Records co-owner Gerard Cosloy, art punks Guiding Light, power poppers Touch Girl Apple Blossom, and noise rockers Wet Dip. The trio’s long-awaited sophomore album, Hell 2, sets Nogay’s apocalyptic spoken word imagery to glitchy samples, intricate tape loops, and the occasional pop melody. – Carys Anderson
