Go see The Oranges Band tonight
You don't get many chances to see The Oranges Band.
And since they're one of Baltimore's best indie rock groups, and tonight's gig at The Ottobar is a special pre-release of their new album, you should see them live.
Here is my two-line review of their new album, Are Invisible:
"Blistering guitar work and pounding drums make for a fiery listen. Perpetually underdogs in the indie rock scene, The Oranges Band doesn't need your attention -- but they deserve it."
Metromix followed the boys around town for a day, and came up with a pretty funny feature. Dig it here.

I've been The Baltimore Sun's nightlife and local entertainment reporter for a couple years, and it's surprising how much the scene has grown in that time. Most of Baltimore's bars and clubs are unpretentious places with fairly cheap drinks and plenty of character. I like dancing and think this city needs more clubs, but nothing beats having a cold, locally brewed beer with friends in a comfortably full corner bar.
