Local punk quartet Chief Mountain are back together and returned with a bang to the Slice, Sept. 1.
I missed opening act Yo Bear, but was in time for the sound check and a hot set from Chief Mountain, who played the best I’ve seen them.
They played a tight set of garage rock, psychedelic rock and straight ahead punk. They sounded like Forbidden Dimension in places and the Misfits in others.
They channeled Social Distortion in their more punk places. most of their set was originals, but they also added a few obscure covers.
