Philly rock 'n' rollers Lightninging and Univox take the stage tonight at MilkBoy Philly in support of Brooklyn guitar addicts Fang Island. Lightning is a five-piece group in which all the members, with the exception of their drummer, switch instruments in between songs throughout their sets. Their tracks are rooted in the traditional indie rock format, but often expand into extended musical journeys complete with vocal harmonies, keyboards and trumpets. Univox combines fuzzy garage rock with the vocal harmonies of 60s girl groups adding a sense of harmonic texture that is usually missing from guitar bands. [...]
We're mere hours away from starting the weekend, and with the season finale of football over, we'll actually have to go outside. Luckily, there are tons of great shows, and many fundraising for a good cause, over the next few days. Let's get to it. FRIDAY SOFT SPEAKER The Brit pop-inspired Chicago outfit come out swinging with plenty of lingering guitar licks, hazy psychedelic rhythms and even some [...]
Photo by Raoul Ortega Tycho FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3rd Scott Hansen is an artist with a vision. Before he debuted on the music scene as electronic composer Tycho , Hansen was known by his graphic design pseudonym, ISO50. As ISO50, Hansen produces intricate, often illusionary water color pieces—images that make an appealing first impression and grow more complex when scrutinized. His songs sound about the same. Hansen's 2002 EP, Science Of Patterns, and the 2004 album Sunrise Projector hinted at his musical ideas, but it wasn't until his 2011 [...]
Photo by John Vettese The guys in Philadelphia's Univox are rock synthesizers. That's not synthesizers in the EMF / Brian Eno sense - though truly it would be awesome to have a set of keys and bank of sounds literally at your fingertips - but rather in the sense that they're musicians who pull tones and timbres from the disparate styles of the past three decades, and recontextualize them as something all their own. Or, if that sounds too smarty-pants for you, try this: I trust you've heard those cliche comparisons, "sounds like the [...]
Plucky Philly foursome Univox is a reliable pick-me-up. They make extremely imaganitive music videos from simple ideas (like driving on the turnpike) and release solid rock albums like their self-titled full length debut from 2010. I was impressed with these guys the first time I caught them - way back on WXPN's Free at Night showcase at the Appalachian Brewing Company in Harrisburg nearly four years ago - and it continues right up through their latest 73, Tonight , which was released a few weekends ago at a bright and booming gig at PhilaMOCA. The great thing about this single: the b-side, [...]
Below is a new track from one of our local faves Univox entitled "Tonight" from their upcoming 7" single which will be self-released this September along with a cassette version with bonus material. They'll also be having a FREE record release show/party on Wednesday, September 7 at Kung Fu Necktie with Everyone Everywhere and The Bad Doctors . The after-party will be ragin' with the Crystal Visions DJs spinning throughout the evening. Enjoy! Tonight by univoxmusic
Univox are releasing a new 73 single, "Tonight" on September 1st. They are celebrating the release with a free show at Kung Fu Necktie on Wednesday, September 7th with Everyone Everywhere and The Bad Doctors . The after party will be hosted by the Crystal Visions DJs. Below, listen to "Tonight." UNIVOX - Tonight by univoxmusic
Philly's own Univox will be the direct support for LA's Hanni El Khatib this evening at Johnny Brenda's. The quartet plays wild bluesy punk, moody rockabilly, Beatles-inspired boppy vintage pop, and heavy-hearted alternative rock. Exactly. This band can rock your face off, get your feet moving, or pull at your teenage heartstrings so bad your chest will explode. In the vein of White Denim, this foursome explores the great expanse of musical genres, and succeeds at every attempt. A true alliance, Univox members all play, sing, and write, and have proven themselves as masters of each and every [...]
High-spirited power punk trio Bandname are surely building a name for themselves in the local underground music scene. With their well-received full-length Breakfast already under their belts, you can expect the team of Cat Park, Greg Labold, and Jeremy Jams to deliver an action-packed set tonight for all to mosh to at the South Philly DIY space Cha-Cha'Razzi. They'll be joined by the fiercesome foursome of Univox with their epic rock hooks and over-the-top harmonies (in a very good way). Also on the bill this evening for the Music Instruction Party will be Sirs, [...]
Below is a new episode of UNIVOX TV. All we can say is more episodes with Kent Boersma, please. In this "instructional video", Boersma shows us how to make "dozens of dollars" building a mask-making empire. You can purchase your very own mask HERE . There is also a pretty song from The Jones Gang celebrating "urban wreckage Irish style." Enjoy! - The Deli Staff
Even though Philly's Do You Need the Service? has been performing in these parts for three years now, they're no strangers to the local music scene - bassist Justin Hallman has tracked time in Pros from Dover and Bitch Slicer, and saxist Mike Tranmontana jammed in Black Landlord and Afterdinner Mints. The four-piece instrumental rock outfit, which also includes keyboardist Tim Day and drummer Mark Sconyers, is also no stranger to attention. They received positive reviews for their latest album, I Hurl Myself Towards Glory , released in July, were mentioned in Metro and Philadelphia Weekly, and [...]
Summer Fiction performs 12/1 at Johnny Brenda's Whenever some seriously inclement weather—like, say, a freakish rainstorm—takes over the city, having a lack of worthwhile arts-and-entertainment options later in the evening is usually a good thing. That way, you don't feel so bad about staying in the entire night, drying out your soaked clothes while drinking hot tea and watching re-runs of Law & Order . Unfortunately, there's not one, not two, but three can't miss shows going on tonight, all of which feature amazing local acts. So, Philadelphia: Get ready to get wet—again. At [...]
Univox will take listeners back to the days when they were so over the Sex Pistols but hadn't quite found R.E.M. I spent the first two minutes of Univox's self-titled debut LP thinking they'd be the next Mclusky. "Pi" is such a screaming, rip-roaring bit of self-aware fury that I was actually bracing myself for the 11 tracks that would follow it. Imagine my surprise, then, to hear shades of Joy Division, Lou Reed, Iggy Pop, and just about every independent post-punk act from the early '80s in those songs instead. Largely (though not always) led...
Recommended Show: WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 26, 2009 UNIVOX @ DEATH BY AUDIO 49 South 2nd Street Brooklyn, NY 11211 $8, 8PM It's a rather slow night for shows, but fortunately there is always something going on in this city. Death by Audio hosts the 7" release party for Univox tonight, which should be well worth it. In addition, Akudama, Ex-Humans, and White Noise Supremacists also play.

I wanna rock. I wanna rip. I wanna rock AND rip (and it wouldn't hurt to roll, either). But how? With a KILLER-DILLER TRIFECTA OF SEVEN-INCH RECORDS FOR THE FIRST EDITION OF PINCHING YOUR 7-INCH , with offerings from Univox, Dinowalrus and Hindutronic , of course! I'm ecstatic. Is there a better format for a band to get its ideas across without overstaying its welcome? I'd wager 60 percent of the full-length LPs in this world could easily be pared down [...]

Music from My Mailbox
Wow. I just can't get the motivation or inspiration lately to post. I look through my CDs and the stuff on my computer and think, Nah, that's all been done. Then I look through the 100-plus emails clogging my inbox and think, There's gotta be something interesting in there. So out of those hundred-some emails, this is what I culled. Can you see why I'm not feeling too inspired these days? My pick of the litter this go-round is Univox's "Pi," which I think I had attempted to post before but there was a problem with the link [...]
