Rolling Into Anaheim!

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club might sound like they’re from Manchester, but they’re actually just going to be visiting the House of Blues Anaheim on Tuesday from ... Los Angeles. Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, or BRMC, is actually originally from San Francisco, and their Americana folk revival-influenced sound meets T. Rex, Sonic Youth and the Jesus and Mary Chain. The band definitely straddles the lines here: Psychedelia, distorted Shoegaze, some Dark Wave.

We first heard from BRMC in 2001 with full-length B.R.M.C.: It was gritty… loud. There were near indistinguishable vocals, raw guitar riffs—yet it still had the Brit pop catchiness of Oasis. This is really one of the best shows to come to the House of Blues in some time: Get ready for noise.

Black Rebel Motorcycle Club: Tues., 8 p.m., $17.50-$20. House of Blues, 1530 S. Disneyland Dr., Anaheim, 714.778.2583. All ages.
