ATX Show Spotlight: Xetas Record Release @ Hotel Vegas (TONIGHT!)

February 25, 2015 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

In a week with several great local releases (Zoltars/Quiet Company included), you’ve got to show up tonight to catch the ballsy rock display that Xetas continuously bring to the stage. The work they’ve put into The Redeemer completely catches their live energy, harnessing it into a ball of fury that’s ready to destroy your Apple headphones; you’ll likely want to hear this record on the best stereo possible. Go out to Hotel Vegas tonight, as they band will be joined by other local heavy-hitters, Spray Paint, Carl Sagan’s Skate Shoes and New China. And if you can’t make it out to the show, grab the album from 12XU; you won’t be let down, I swear it.
