GOOD NEWS.
The good news is that we’re getting the new EP mastered today. The other good news is that we played Off the Floor Fest last night with some great friends/greater bands including but not limited to Greys, the Sweet Mack, Hinindar and the Dirty Nil (who I will now proceed to rant about).
Peter and I first heard about these guys in December and after we heard Fuckin’ Up Young (the “double A-side” 7” also contains Verona Lung, another great song) we were hooked. We went to see them at the Shoe but I only caught two songs, so I saw them at the Silver Dollar with the Sweet Mack last week and they’ve become one of my favorite local bands.
There’s something so unabashedly pure about the way they play and present themselves. It’s so enjoyable for me to see these 3 guys play for the love of playing, not to mention the fact that their songs rule. Their sound definitely harkens back to Pinkerton-era Weezer but they’ve got their own thing going on as well. They also do a killer cover of the Immigrant Song that’s worth a listen.
Here’s an “acoustic” video from NXNE last year. I think it sums up the band pretty well.
Check them out!
