Los Campesinos! + Johnny Foreigner October 25, 2010

Celebrating a bratty, tongue-in-cheek viewpoint and a spunky indie-punk style similar to Art Brut while applying an assortment of instruments akin to Architecture in Helsinki, the seven-piece group Los Campesinos! (a Spanish name that roughly translates to "the Peasants") formed in 2006 in Cardiff, Wales. They perform at Republic in support of their new album "Romance is Boring", about which Pitchfork claims "it all comes to a head here... the not-so-quiet confidence and compositional precision of their earlier work, the weary weather-beaten sound of We Are Beautiful, and of course Gareth's hilarious, grotesque, and immensely affecting character sketches...the payoff of three years of extremely hard work." Presented by noirCollective.
