In a few more marks of the rock world further embracing electronic elements, Saturday’s Neumos show features both School of Seven Bells and up-and-comers The Depreciation Guild. The former, made up of members of Secret Machines and On! Air! Library!, features harmonies of the identical twins Alejandra and Claudia Deheza layered over electronic and guitar-laden textures. The latter combines the hazy guitars of shoegaze and dreampop but punctuates that with 8-bit tones, a pairing that is a bit jarring at first but works to interesting effect. It’s a very appropriate pairing of bands, well worth your Saturday night.
