Indie Band Seventeen Evergreen Wins Us Over With Knit-Bombs

Posted by , 555 days Ago

First bikes, lampposts, and sometimes even trees, but now Seventeen Evergreen has created an entire underground knit-bombed society in their latest music video for “Polarity Song.” It’s a wooly landscape that fails to muffle the San Francisco duo’s vibrant sound, and we have a feeling that their cloth-mummified cult will continue to grow. Caleb Pate […]

Real Estate’s Dogs Win Us Over: No Question, Game Over

Back in 2009, Real Estate‘s self-titled debut album embodied our post-college yearning for life without responsibilities, wrapped it up as a lo-fi jam and delivered it to an eager audience of 20-year-olds. The New Jersey band displayed an ability to make a career out of being cool, and the current music scene ate up that […]

Eugene McGuinness’ Latest Video Puts ‘Pulp Fiction’ to Shame

Posted by , 563 days Ago

In Eugene McGuinness‘ debut EP The Early Learnings of Eugene McGuinness, the London musician buzzed our ears with the catchiest of tunes. He made us feel like the cool, alternative kids we all wish we were with tight, rocking tracks about childhood subjects. Never has getting lost in the supermarket felt so bad-ass.

Posted by , 569 days Ago

The Black Keys have actually been around for a while.

But neither were the case. […]

Drummer Darren Weiss also drums for Girls, but formed Papa with bassist Danny Presant, keyboardist Alex Fischel and guitarist Evan Weiss as the band’s singer-drummer (a rare find), and have since been touring with Girls as their warm-up band, but the term “warm-up” is an understatement. Papa’s debut EP A Good Woman Is Hard To […]

The Horrors Ditch Goth Punk For 60s Psychedelic Shoegaze

Posted by , 577 days Ago

The Horrors emerged on NME‘s cover back in 2006 as more of an image than a band. Without even an EP yet released, it seems their stylish hair was enough to propel them into fame. But even if some of us doubted the merit of the band’s success, their trio of solid albums quickly shut […]
