Native Korean Rock & The Fishnets: Day Go By and Comes the Night (Live) (Video)

At the debut show for her new side-project, Native Korean Rock & The Fishnets, at Union Pool on Monday, Karen O. and band were outfitted in Sailor-themed outfits, and the band played a bunch of new tracks, some of which, including these two videos, aren’t featured on Native Korean Rock’s MySpace.

“Day Go By” is one of those—it’s a shuffling rocker that finds Karen O. sounding a whole lot like Chrissie Hynde from the Pretenders. “Comes the Night” is of a different type—it’s a slow, short ballad that floats along like a leaf on a lake.
There’s no word on if there’s a Native Korean Rock album in the pipelines for Karen (although there is that third Yeah Yeah Yeahs record), and if she’ll be bringing the band out again anytime soon.
