The Antlers and Phantogram at Fox Theatre
Calling last year’s Hospice a concept record is doing something of a disservice to what The Antlers accomplished with it; novella-in-verse-with-music might be a more apt description. Told through the dark lens of losing a loved one to cancer, the narrative Peter Silberman and company craft deals with obsession, grief, psychological abuse, and ghosts, and does so in such raw, broken detail it can be a tough listen. Steeped in the sweeping, epic drama of forebears such as Talk Talk and contemporaries like Shearwater, The Antlers aim for the heart but aren’t afraid to break bones and spill blood along the way.
