Lysolgang record release show with Stab City and Margate – at Cheetahs – Hollywood, CA

The much anticipated record release show for the Los Angeles band, Lysolgang, finally commenced a few Saturdays ago at Cheetahs in Hollywood. Margate started their set by showcasing songs from their recently released E.P., including the title track "Rock 'n Roll Reserve" and even providing the crowd with a unique rendition of  "Eleanor Rigby."

Next up was the dynamic trio of Stab City. With ripping guitar riffs and heart thumping drums, Stab City's own staple of hard rock is one that cannot be matched. Blasting through their set with incredible energy, Stab City kept the crowd hyped and left the stage sizzling for the main event.

As Lysolgang took to the stage, the ladies of Cheetahs began filing along, waiting for their turn to strut their stuff.  The setting was quite fitting for Lysolgang to play a show; a perfect match for their flirtatious, tongue-in-cheek lyrics.

From the moment they broke into their first song, the band had the audience - as well as the Cheetah's girls - enthralled, as the stage filled with dollar bills flying from all sides. The trio played all the songs from their debut album with unparalleled intensity, while the eager dancers shimmied up and down the pole, without missing a beat. Lysolgang closed out the night with a hard hitting cover of Nirvana's "Territorial Pissings" that stirred the entire club into a frenzy and left the crowd utterly electrified and begging for more. This show was one for the books.

Lysolgang's sound has its roots based in Southern California Punk rock, with a bit of grunge and surf rock mixed in. Songs like "Ride the Bus," "Po-Tit," and "Shine My Gun" are filled with catchy riffs and captivating beats which tend to playfully linger and re-play in one's head.
