http://www.ticketweb.com/snl/VenueListings.action?venueId=13340 Mahjongg and White Car at The Hideout
The slurred, lopsided grooves of Chicago-based Mahjongg might sound disorienting at first, but they reveal a sure pulse and logic on repeat listens. The band’s 2008 K Records full-length, Kontpab, packs mutant funk and jammy polyrhythm into a body-whipping delirium of tribal proportions. Although a little pretentious and longwinded at times, Mahjongg muddles through sloppy hooks and awkward quasi-rhythms in ways that are, somehow, tons of fun.
