ECHO PARK, CA- They often say that you should never go into business with friends. I think that there is an exception, however, when it comes to music. On June 13th at the Echoplex, I was able to catch Ammo Bankoff (Tete, Black Flamingo) and Neil Popkin’s (War Tapes, Dreamland) collaboration, Brass Box. Theirs is a collaboration that has yielded positive some results.

There was a relaxed intensity to Brass Box’s performance this evening. With Ammo’s airy voice floating over the band’s intricately complex arrangements, they filled the room with a wash of shoegazy sonics. The sound was so grand in scope that you would have been surprised that it was coming from a four piece band. Solid stuff, and I’m looking forward to hearing more from them.
