PICK OF THE WEEK: Nine Inch Nails – 1st Bank Center – Wednesday November 13th

Estimated read time 1 min read

Nine Inch Nails is essentially a one-man Industrial-Rock band whose symphonic noise and intense, alienated lyrics have attracted millions. On September 3, Columbia Records released Hesitation Marks, the new full-length album from Nine Inch Nails. Recorded in secret over the last year, Trent Reznor teamed with producers Atticus Ross and Alan Moulder to create the first new music from Nine Inch Nails in five years.

Phoenix – August 7th – 1st Bank Center

Estimated read time 4 min read

Undaunted by the threats of severe weather and the last minute venue change from Red Rocks to the less environmentally stunning 1st Bank Center, Phoenix had to rise to the challenge last Wednesday of making up for this significant loss. Although plenty of neon garb and vintage Body Glove t-shirts dotted the sizeable and youthful crowd slowly making their way inside, the crowd’s general lack of urgency showed an underlying current of letdown. Once onstage the Frenchmen proved that the sudden turn of events didn’t have to be fatal.

Soundgarden – May 28th – 1st Bank Center

Estimated read time 4 min read

Following Tuesday’s “Evening With Soundgarden” at Colorado’s 1st Bank Center, it is clear that the nearly 15-year hiatus did nothing to hinder the band’s sound, chemistry, or performance. What the hiatus seems to have done is strengthened both the band and its fanbase – Knights of the Soundtable. It was readily apparent, (before the lights had gone down and the long-awaited Soundgarden took the stage), that for these fans, distance really had made all the difference.

Furthur – February 22nd – 1stBank Center

Estimated read time 1 min read

Grateful Dead founders Bob Weir and Phil Lesh laid siege on the Colorado Front Range this past weekend with their band, Furthur. The 4-night run of shows started with a single, intimate performance at The Ogden Theatre in the heart of Denver, an extremely difficult ticket to obtain, and then moved up to the much larger 1st Bank Center in Broomfield where no one would be shut out. By all reports the run featured some great music.
