[text: “In keeping with the spirit of the film, the festival’s bill (23 bands over three days) was wide-ranging. One of the most memorable sets came from the female-fronted Syracuse band Shoppers, who blend shambolic punk with dirty, towering noise: Think early Sonic Youth, plus a bit of manic energy and minus Thurston Moore. Exactly how intense was their live performance? For one thing, early on it contained this line: “Hi, we’re Shoppers from New York, and I just broke four strings in the first song.”“]
