Milwaukee’s Father Phoenix have over the last several years made the transition from raging punk rockers with an ear for smart, post-hardcore song structures to devotees of 1970s hard-rock, embracing more traditional (albeit still damn heavy) rock ’n’ roll riffs. The band flaunts their newly bluesy sound tonight on their new Large Bodies EP, which they released this summer on Chicago’s Forge Again records.
