The U.K. gives birth to another elctro rock band, Late Of The Pier. The four piece from Castle Donington formed in 2001 releasing singles sporadically. They signed with Parlophone Records, whose artists include bands such as Radiohead, Hot Chip, and Bat For Lashes. August of this year marked the release of their debut album Fantasy Black Channel.
The up and coming indie rock band has been compared to MGMT with their prominent usage of synthesizers and innovative fringes.
Last January saw the release of The Teenagers newest album Reality Check to mixed reviews. Its the truth, The Teenagers put off a snide, smug, pretentious attitude on their debut album. Reality Check will not dazzle you with vocal ability, or even complex beats, but it will keep your attention with its garish vibe. Love them or hate them, The Teenagers are opening up for Vampire Weekend at Terminal 5, Tomorrow, Wednesday December 3rd.
The electro rock roller coaster Shiny Toy Guns takes you on is one ride you don’t want to miss. If you sit down and listen to a Shiny Toy Guns album from first to last song you will think that you are listening to several different bands. At times their tunes are strictly dance floor material and then the track changes and its punk rock all the way. It is their versatile sound that gives them a unique appeal to music fans.
Strap yourselves in, throw your arms up and take a listen to their new album Season Of Poison out today.
