Review: Ladyslipper – The Time, Not The Weather

Ladyslipper is a Minneapolis post-punk trio with an unfortunately uncertain future at the moment. Their debut album is full of thick and super-cool heavy (but melodic) indie rock that sounds a bit like The Killers fighting Black Sabbath inside a Central Minnesota grain silo as Mission Of Burma blares from the speakers of a still-running pickup nearby. Sometimes lilting and sometimes jagged; this is a great debut that’s got a mathy precision and buzzes with a darkly Trio-ish vibe. All that aside, the band is on hiatus and may very well have played their last show… and that would be too bad.

    Sam now lives in Brooklyn, so it’s hard for us to get together. However – There are talks of us getting together in December of 08 for some shows/a show
