Half Goon's Taco Tuesday residency at the Continental Room this month continues, and those who have seen Half Goon play live can attest to the raw energy that erupts from vocalist Adam Sepulveda, who is known to let loose onstage during performances. But don't let that take away from the rest of the group's musical tenacity; as a whole, Half Goon have released some solid music that combines punk, post-punk and hardcore, while others have noted an influence of shoegaze in the mix. If you haven't seen Half Goon play yet, what are you waiting for? Tonight they play Continental Room with Girl Tears, Audacity, and No Parents.
