Here’s another video of Attack in Black play­ing live. It was my third time see­ing them live in one month, and def­i­nitely the small­est venue I’ve seen them play in (the last two times were at the Horse­shoe and Massey Hall). This one was an unan­nounced show (a fundraiser for a friend actu­ally), with the rest of the bill rounded out by Black­burn, Wayne Petti, Sarah Harmer, Travis Good, and Greg Keelor. Need­less to say, the boys kept it pretty low-key, though they still rocked pretty hard. Van beers fol­lowed. Hope to visit ‘em in Mon­treal some­time soon.

When I was chat­ting with Kehoe before the show I said that the first time I saw Attack in Black back­ing up Jim­mie was at an in-store at Crim­i­nal Records about a year ago. I didn’t real­ize it until he told me, but that was their first show together! Since then they’ve become quite the tight lit­tle rock unit, surely due to their non-stop tour­ing sched­ule. They’ve  also started a label together and each released fan­tas­tic new records, so it was good to have them back in Toronto. The first video here is a song called Province to Province, which is an older tune they re-recorded for Still Jim­mie, and per­formed here flaw­lessly. The sec­ond video is actu­ally of two songs, Leav­ing Your Death in a Flowerbed and I’m a Rock, both off of AIB’s new album Years (by one thou­sand fin­ger­tips). I’ve also got a video of the open­ing band Hunters & Anglers, as well as more Attack in Black and Shot­gun Jim­mie videos up on my YouTube page.
