Decent band. Metalcore with sludge/post-rock elements and free jazz.

Genghis Tron

Pretty much these guys looked EXACTLY like what I expected: the nerdiest-looking hipsters ever.

Their set was cut a bit short because the guitarist had a lot of technical difficulties during the set. Apparently water was spilled all over his effect board the day prior. Regardless, they were fucking amazing.

Took this one of them setting up their equipment. I always like checking out people electronics set ups:
