Fuck Buttons at Mercury Lounge

I saw Fuck Buttons at Mercury Monday, although I am not sure if Merc was the right venue. These two guys make some awesome noise with laptops, synth keyboards, and toy instruments. Their music drones, twinkles, and clicks along sometimes to weird tribal beats or screaming in the background, which would be more fitting if we were all outside, around a campfire, with robots flying overhead and blowing things up, marking the end of human civilization. True those environs are not really possible but maybe they could have played on the floor.

Also in regards to their stupid name one would think the would at least have buttons at their merch table either that say "fuck" or have one letter per button. You could collect them all.
