highhplacigheplacess

I hate to say "my new favorite band" because I went down that path only a few posts ago, but High Places took me by complete surprise on Saturday night. Laptop music had slipped away from me, fed by aggressive positivism and diva tendencies. The rich LA/PDX noise/fun scene and San Diego's industrial goths had collectively reared a six band ugly head. For the last three days the surf had been blown out. As a casual defeatist, I relaxed to Herman Dune in between sets - but nothing could have prepared me for the empty, mixed up sounds of High Places. I am certain that this meaningless blurb has not prepared you.
