Saw The Goodtime Boys at the Cardiff Arts Institute on Tuesday and I think that their performance can be summed up in one word...... Energy.
I'm talking straight up crazy ass, non stop so much action going on you think your eyes are about to fall out kind of energy. From start to finish this band do not stop moving, with the lead singer launching himself around the dance floor like a 12 year old who's drunk too much lemonade its pretty hard to keep up with.
My problem with this kind of performance though is that with so much going on for the eyes to see are we being distracted from the music thats hitting us.
The music in question is straight up hardcore, and is pretty dam good, with the guitarists and bassist doing some very interesting stuff to accompany the lead singers hardcore screams and crazy movements.
Now hardcore is not usually my cup of tea but there is enough going on musically to keep me interested, would be nice to maybe see these goes slow things down a tad in the performance department to let the music take charge but apart from that a very good show.
Check them out if you get the chance
