A Place To Bury Strangers und Adult.

You haven’t seen a rock show until you’ve witness A Place to Bury Strangers. Once dubbed New York City’s ‘loudest rock band,’ this band plugs in and will literally blow your ears off. Composed of Oliver Ackerman, Dion Lunadon and Robi Gonzalez, they went through a number of lineup changes before releasing their first album. However with ingenuity and determination, they rocked their way to a record deal and dropped three albums, including 2012’s ‘Worship.’
Watching them is not only a sonic but also a visual experience. Lighting is a big part of their show, mainly because you’re essentially standing in the dark for a good amount of the gig. But of course, they can’t stay that way the whole time (or can they?). Without being too spacey, A Place to Bury Strangers have a white strobe light in addition to other lighting systems, which adds another dimension. And for someone who photographs concerts, it’s probably one of the most exciting and frustrating thing to deal with. But once you get the tempo of the light right, their set up will produce some of the more interesting shots you’ll grab of a band.
A Place to Bury Strangers aren’t just loud. They clearly have a set plan when it comes to their playing. The chaotic and heavy beating of the drums add a dubby effect to the shoegaze riffs on the guitars. Just make sure you don’t stand too close to the speaker. Otherwise you might not hear anything else for the next couple of days.
