Krill is another signee from Boston's Exploding in Sound label, which has been "blowing up" recently with a steady stream of stellar groups somehow managing to make straightforward indie guitar rock seem surprisingly novel: Porches, Speedy Ortiz, Pile and Big Ups, the latter of whom opens the night. Perfect for post-hardcore connoisseurs, Big Ups embodies the ferocity, tension and offbeat humor inherent to the genre.
