This group comes in second for the amount of shows played during SXSW, the first being the Vivian Girls. Despite the frequency of shows during the week, I didn’t catch them, but I didn’t despair because they’ll be here soon. Despite the janky operation that was being run here, the group persevered playing to a much eager crowd waiting to here the P4K darlings perform songs from their S/T album. The album is stuck in a timewarp from the mid-80’s when AIDS was a myth and people were still drinking Tab. The music spoke for itself and the group almost made La Condesna collapse with their magnetic sound.
