Erase Errata, special guest, Six Figures, Die! Die! Die! - Club Exit (toddpnyc.com)

Every time Todd P throws down at Club Exit, I immediately conjure up a comic image of the band onstage at the gaudy Polish disco – which never is really as funny as it seems once you get there – it’s simply a great place to see a show. Maybe if Mr. P would invest in the club’s infamous dancefloor foam? That’s cultureclash at its giddiest best…

The cream of the crop of turn of the Y2K underground rock stars, Erase Errata, unless I missed it, hasn't shown its face around these parts for some time. Though one of the handful of bands responsible for the annoying post-punk revival, it was just another case of a visionary band becoming extremely influential. The spazzy trio’s art punk was timely, intelligent, and distinctive - a sort of West Coast God Is My Co-Pilot for the 21st Century. And,while they never really achieved the fame of all of the unimaginative louses that are still reeling in the post-punk cash in 2006, I'm sure they still kick all of those other bands asses in terms of integrity, creativity, and brains. Which makes me wonder exactly what direction they're taking at this point?

Though clearly the best and most fun way to find the answer will be to hit Club Exit tonight, you can also check it out tomorrow at the Knitting Factory or pick up their new Kill Rock Stars album which should hit stores in the next few days.
