Side Arm Girl Thrower live August 14th 2011 at the Arlene Francis Center

Side Arm Girl Thrower is the sickest fuckin' two piece. This is their latest, and possibly best performance yet. Burning Token is stoked to have captured this for everyone to see.

Sean plays his bass with phat distortion and ever changing chord progressions and melodies. There are more interesting melodies and rhythms than most bands have with three stringed instruments. His vocals are unrestrained and ancient, and the lyrics are fun if you can make them out. 

And then there's Nick Porter. Every time I see him play drums, I get a lesson on just how durable a drum set can be. He plays so fast, it's awesome to watch. But not like other fast drummers, he has some serious power. He smashes the snare so hard, it sounds so fucking mean! And everyones like to watch drum fills where the drumsticks move too fast to see what drum or cymbal is being hit.

Both of these guys have been with Burning Token Records since its beginnings. Check out these videos and you'll see why they should stick around. If you can, please go buy their album or support them at a show because I really really want them to keep playing. -Jeff
