Hella Good

Until recently, a Polish nightclub was not a place you would expect to see hyper-spastic math rock. Fortunately, Europa in Greenpoint has begun hosting a few rock shows a week. Friday night, Hella whipped up a musical-frenzy on Europa's small black light-lit stage in front of a room packed with fans. Even with the former instrumental two-piece expanding to a five-piece with vocals, Hella's set was seamlessly tight, playing songs from the recently released, There's No 666 in Outer Space. While the rest of the band was great, it was Zach Hill's frantic pounding of the skins that made this performance memorable.
