Holy Ramone! How many good rocking songs can you get basically using the same drum beat and three guitar chords? At the Parkside Lounge tonight, the Weapons brought garage-band music back to its pop punk roots, playing songs that were short, fast and loud. Unlike many of the pioneers of this music, the quartet hosted two lead guitarists, making the songs stand out as more rocking than popping. Not to be confused with numerous recording artists (as far as Canada and Iceland!) called Weapon or Weapons, this New York-based band performs next at Bowery Electric on May 16.
