Do This: Terrible Spaceship @ Martyr's

By Marcus Gilmer in Arts & Entertainment on Oct 3, 2009 5:00PM

We don't know quite to aptly describe the performance by our pals Terrible Spaceship. They seem to nail it best when they call themselves, "multimedia ambient synthetic horror pop." Featuring members of Clip Art, Bumpus, and Grammar, their unique mix of audio and video is a surreal experience but also a hell of a good time. And you're in luck because they're bringing the show to Martyr's tonight giving you a great way to kick off your Rocktober. They're playing along with the aptly named Lowdown Brass Band and the piano-pop trio Lying Delilah. It's an eclectic mix but all three bands are worth the trip up Lincoln Avenue.

Lowdown Brass Band, Terrible Spaceship, and Lying Delilah, Saturday October 3, 10 p.m., Martyr's, 3855 N. Lincoln Ave, $8
