I’ve been hearing a lot of amazing new bands lately. Unfortunately, all I have are EPs of these fresh, new artists. And even though each one probably deserves it’s own full review, I decided to just briefly talk about each one. I promise to review any full lengths these bands might put out in the future.
New Look
Married duo, Adam Pavao and Sarah Ruba, kick out the disco-influenced slow jams and make them sound really, really really cool.
New Look - Make It Over

The Big Pink
The name Big Pink either makes me think of some thing cute, soft and cuddly…or something monstrous, gooey and quite possibly from another planet. This band falls into the latter category.
The Big Pink - Too Young to Love

The Bitters
Fuzzy garage revival is still in full swing. The Bitters bring a punkier attitude to this popular microtrend.
The Bitters - Warrior

Motorama
Do you love Joy Division? Do you wish that Ian Curtis was still around to make music? My friends, I give you Russian born post-punk dance music.

Best Coast
Fuzzy West Coast pop that feels like it was made for lazy summer beach days.
Best Coast - The Sun Was High (So Was I)

Girls
We all know that bands named after the female gender are quickly replacing bands named after animals (ie. Parenthetical Girls, Women, Girl Talk, Dum Dum Girls, and so forth), but please make room in your heart for this San Fran based sensitive garage rock group.
Girls - Hellhole Ratrace

Get Back Guinozzi!
Now for some eccentric and extremely colorful. It’s like eating pop rocks with soda…
