In the 1998 action comedy movie Six-String Samurai, a Buddy Holly stand-in wields a katana slaying Mad Max pastiches of rock and rolls greatest legends. During a bar fight scene, a band plays with an outlandish look and ferocious style on oversized instruments. You’d think this band would be an invention of the film’s Mad Max aesthetic, but it’s the actual Igor & the Red Elvises! That’s just their brand. They play an eclectic blend of psychobilly, surf rock and funk. They’re impossible to pin down, and they’re bringing the unstoppable party with them to the Ritz Thursday night.
