Music Picks for Thursday, July 1

The Mantras - Pourhouse (Rock/Psychedelic Fusion)
This Greensboro based band brings a unique blend of rock and psychedelic music fused together with rare instrumentation and driving riffs. This is being billed as the O'Phishal afterparty and I cant think of a better local band to fit the bill. Expect a great crowd and a great show as these guys feed off the crowd - a jacked up crowd only raises the bar for an most excellent effort and performance.....
I really like these guys - they remind me a lot of another jam band in the same vein: Particle - hi-energy, great driving beats and music that is all over the place. These guys very have a great diverse sound that ranges from chill rock to explosive psychedelic pulsation... And it is all great!
Check them out and come on out and check out the show!

The Cinder Cats & Wax Planet open the evening around 9 or so - you can expect TheMantras to take the stage sometime after 11....

Caltrop - Slims (Indie Rock)
Chapel Hill based Caltrop promises to tear up Slims on a Thursday. While cast in the Indie genre, what they do is test the limits of themselves and the music - what you get is what I would label experimental Rock - and leave it at that. The great thing about this is that each rendition of each song may be a little different with a little more attitude, guitars, drums or extra solos... It's all good and this promises to be a very good and entertaining show.
Check them out on their site and then check out the show!
