Georgia’s the Whigs play tight guitar-pop songs that seem inspired by both the ’70s and the ’90s. There’s also a slight Southern lilt that points to R.E.M. and even My Morning Jacket. Tonight the band plays from its fiery new record, Mission Control. The Spinto Band—a Delaware group featuring two sets of brothers—plays bent guitar pop with a touch of psychedelia, drawing upon XTC and contemporaries the Starlight Mints. The first full-length from Plants and Animals, Parc Avenue, hits shelves in March and exhibits much of the epic orchestration and surging climaxes used by another Montreal band, the Arcade Fire. Depending on where you stand, it may or may not surprise you that Plants and Animals can do it better.
