WHY? and Baths are two acts united by their commitment to the bit. WHY? frontman and chief songwriter Yoni Wolf is sardonic and damn near misanthropic, and he crowed morbid lyrics and deployed sarcastic quips in between songs at his headlining date at Washington D.C.’s the Atlantis on Tuesday night.

You can't really fault the musicianship, but WHY?'s set features more annoying elements than sounds that stop you in your tracks.
