Live Music Pick: 400 Blows/Qui


I'm planning to stay at home tonight and hand out Halloween candy. But if you're dying to get out of the house and you're not going to the parade in West Hollywood here's my pick:

400 Blows and Qui @ King King [$10] - 400 Blows (named after one of my favorite Truffaut films) is a hardcore three-piece band from LA. Definitely in your face, sonic assault-type stuff. I mostly listen to softer music these days, but every once in a while it's still nice to hear music that punches you in the face. They're heading to Europe soon to play the Mars Volta curated All Tomorrow's Parties. Tonight and November 18th at the Scene in Glendale will be your last chance to see them for a while. Qui is loud too. They don't seem to have a real website.

Here are some 400 Blows downloads:
The Root of Our Nature
The Ugly are So Beautiful
