A show for the people, indeed - Whartscape was back in Baltimore this weekend for its second year with an impressive lineup of (no longer) underground hotshits including Spank Rock, Dan Deacon and The Death Set.”
“Inducing a predictable cringe from the more conservative set, Whartscape is far from a blemish on the city or its music and art scene. Organizer Adam Endes (lead singer for Blood Baby, pictured above with a Ben Furgal piece) says, “…here was this art festival called Artscape happening. It wasn’t really aimed at young people. It seemed to be for families and people who have money. So we figured, let’s put on a show for the people who want loud music and crazy dancing.”
The very-on-the-ball kids over at Baltimore’s Butterteam let us have some of their excellent MP3 and visuals heavy coverage of these several days of sweating in out on the dance floor:
