Thee Vicars, Pirate Love
The CaveAfter SXSW, two foreign bands swing through the Triangle. Britain’s Thee Vicars deliver frenetic, fast-paced garage rock with occasional surf-guitar breaks. Led by the whining, nasal vocals of Rev. Mike Whittaker, the group delivers pugnacious, ’60s-style pop melodies that recall the Black Lips, simply with more distortion and stronger R&B roots. Named after a New York Dolls song, Pirate Love hails from Norway. While in the same tradition as Thee Vicars, Pirate Love sounds more like cocksure masculinity than fun deviance. The show starts at 10 p.m. Visit www.caverntavern.com. Andrew Ritchey
