Fat Nut

|
An energetic, uplifting, feelgood groove-pop thing, the music
of Fat Nut breaks the mold of cookie cutter alternative rock
and fills you with an indelible vibe, a breath of fresh air.
Their unique combination of melodic steel drums fused with the
thick intricate guitar work and tight rhythm section compel you
to whistle their music long after it has stopped. |
|
Zero Parade

|

Following in the footsteps of bands like the Violent Femmes,
the Replacements, and the B-52s, Zero Parade are all about fun.
Pop, Punk, Rock ... They raise the flag of the alternative world
with their collective tongues planted firmly in cheek. |
|
Mariana Trench

|
The music of Mariana Trench has rich, passionate vocals; wall-of-sound,
rockin' guitars; melodic, powerful bass lines; and rock-steady,
groove drumming. Combined, these ingredients create alternative/rock
music that is hypnotic and aggressive ranging from the subtlety
of a whisper to the unstoppable power of a speeding locomotive. |
|
Superkreme

|

R.E.M., Matthew Sweet, The Jayhawks, Son Volt ... you'll hear
those influences and more when the sound of Superkreme hits you.
"Pop Songs" as a dirty phrase does not apply here.
With the dual electric guitars and high harmonies fronting the
driving rhythm section, Superkreme fires off heavy lyrics repeater-style
with feel and strum to match. Their subtle slickness is balanced
by an inherent vulnerability the band members are not afraid
to reveal through the cool of the rock veneer. |

Yea ... uh ... sure
