[from Chicago, IL] when I hear this band, I
hear hugeness, stages, and screaming in my head, and I genuinely thought this
band was HUGE – “Double Vision” is one of my favorite songs of the last few
years and they sound HUGE and everytime one of their songs come on I think ‘I
like this band so much,’ but the crowd was modest and they were just average
joes – apparently, this is achieved through the use of voice echoing, distorted
guitars, walls of sound, and good musicianship … it’s a little contrived but
it’s pretty effective – in person, they’re difficult for me to describe –
although I had them classified in my head as garage punk, in person, they made
me think of hard shoegaze and indie rock
– I don’t know… they were cute and that song inspires me everytime and their
sound pleases me immensely even if it’s kind of cheating – I particularly like
the guy’s voice and their psychy-pop ethic - plus a female guitarist, always
good, and she was appropriately detached and cool without being a hipster at
all (Photo courtesy of
