The mosh pit of yesteryear was alive and well Friday night (September 21) when hardcore punk supergroup Off! took the Tipitina’s stage with a blistering onslaught of sonic aggression — each outburst averaging but a minute long.
Helmed by Circle Jerks/Black Flag alum Keith Morris, the L.A. act — which also includes Burning Brides frontman Dimitri Coats, Redd Kross bassist Steven Shane McDonald and Rocket From The Crypt/Hot Snakes drummer Mario Rubalcaba — delivered an expectedly high-energy set, ripping through tracks from this year’s self-titled disc and 2010’s First Four EPs debut.
