No less than a weirdly fascinating duo playing mechanical synth pop, Terminal A is an interesting band that can't be pegged into a simple description. Declaring their genre to be “rock n fucking roll,” it can be confusing for the camp of rock fans who think rock n' roll is about guitar riffs and drum solos. But Terminal A provides haunting lyrics vocalized by passionate singing (read: yelling) against synthesizer beats and guitar with members Colin Peterson and Lee Busch outfitted in all black and leather jackets. So you can definitely surmise that there's a rock n' roll angle to Terminal A. Performing tonight at the Continental Room with BLOK and Enjoy.
