Obits "Pine On" Playing FRIDAY & SATURDAY at: Cake Shop (152 Ludlow St., L.E.S.) Get: Tickets ($10 at door) | Directions Garage punks the Obits made their New York debut in 2008, but the band members have been on the indie rock scene for years. After his band Hot Snakes broke up, Rick Froberg hooked up with fellow guitarist Sohrab Habibion, an alumnus of the D.C. group Edsel, and drummer Scott Gursky, who also plays in Shortstack. After adding bassist Greg Simpson, the quartet released their debut album I Blame You last year. On this rowdy track from that record, the band showcases their knack for tight, melodic frenzy.
