Chore Boys – The Pilot Light, Knoxville, TN – 9.5.2009
by admin on Sep.07, 2009, under Good Music, Video
So the other night I decided to hit up a benefit show at The Pilot Light in Knoxville’s Old City. It was to support the Knox Girls Rock Camp, which I think teaches young ladies to play instruments and be happy or something. There were about ten or so bands playing, including Milo, Flak Jaket and others. It was all mostly attention holding, if not pretty damn good at times. Then, around 11:30 maybe, it became transcendental.
It was at this time that the local five piece, Chore Boys, took the stage. I had heard about them for a little while now, but never got the blessed opportunity to witness it in person until the night in question. My expectations were superseded.
Chore Boys maintain a chaotic flamboyance, similar to of Montreal, alongside a brash, old school punk rock ethic somewhere in the area of Dead Kennedys. It’s was difficult to pin down who the hell is doing what as they all moved aimlessly about each other like larger than life cartoons
. Primary vocalist, Jared Stoneberg, alternating between a bullhorn
and the microphone, flailed around between the audience and the stage, appearing incoherently determined amidst strobe lights
and flying beer cans.
Everything about Chore Boys is raucous, down and dirty. Oddly, however, only the most prudent prude would be put off by them. It’s something akin to watching bloody, newborn rats blindly scramble over each other in a nest…with music.
Though it does them no justice, whatsoever, check out a video from one of their past performances below.
