Screaming Females from New Brunswick, New Jersey are one of my absolute favourite bands. Marissa Paternoster is one of my favourite guitar players and has one of probably the top three or four live guitar sounds ever. To say I was looking forward to this show at The Garrison would be an understatement.

Screaming Females' most recent album is 2018's All At Once and it's an incredible piece of art. The album came in as my favourite album of 2018 (check out the full list here) and the song "I'll Make You Sorry" came in at #2 on my favourite songs of 2018 (the full list is here).

I've always marvelled at and focused on Marissa's guitar playing and sound at the shows, and for whatever reason at this show I was hearing more of the full-band impact. They are unbelievably tight. The way that the band fits together and works as a solid unit is a marvel to behold. They've been together for years and it shows by how effortless they make the magic that they create seem to the listener and concert-goer.

Their setlist was amazing, featuring songs both old and new, and personally hitting many of my favourite tunes. Please check out my favourite tunes below and go see Screaming Females when they stop by your town.

This was my fifth time covering the band for the web site. Check out photos from their show at The Hard Luck earlier this year, from The Garrison in 2017, from their appearance at The Silver Dollar Room during NXNE 2016, and from The Garrison in 2015.

Screaming Females had Dark Thoughts along for their tour and they had locals Big School put on an impressive set to open the show. Check out my coverage of both of those bands by clicking the links.

"Hopeless"
