FRIDAY
:: vaz ::

[via myspace]
“This New York City duo (by way of Minnesota by way of Los Angeles) culls the energy of SST and Amphetamine Reptile records with ease. That may be because its two members, vocalist/guitarist Paul Erickson and drummer Jeff Mooridian were in post-hardcore noise rockers Hammerhead … Vaz produces the dynamics of early Sonic Youth on “Blue Lip Special” while coughing up the type of experimental noise rock shared by Hella and Lightning Bolt.”-Allmusic

“The Animal LP is composed around a central group of melodic and harmonic motifs, which are explored, transformed, and pulled apart throughout each of the tracks … The duo have created a sound that uses both subtle and drastic shifts in tone, tempo, and intensity, while maintaining an aggressive edge and drive. The LP has over an hour of intricate guitar tapestries and frenetic drumming, off-set with thickets of noise.” -amazon

:: STATS ::

[via myspace]
“Brooklyn’s STATS play tangled, precise guitar rock instrumentals somewhere around the fulcrum of math rock and metal. Slippery arpeggios and sudden timing shifts abound, as each extended track winds unpredictably to its destination. Unsurprisingly, they’ve shared the stage with similarly technical guitar bands like Ocrilim and Behold… the Arctopus, and share members with Extra Life (bassist Tony Gedrich), Hexa (guitarist Joe Petrucelli), and, in the past, Aa (drummer Hank Shteamer).” -Impose

:: bad credit no credit ::

[via thepiratehat]
“With support from instruments ranging from slide whistles, tubas, melodicas, saxophones, clarinets, and flutes, [Carrie Anne Murphy's] voice dominates the burlesque/ chamber sounds that emanate from the group … Live, her presence is undeniable and quite arresting” -Adequacy

:: carnivores ::

[via myspace]
“To get a handle on where Carnivores takes their roots, it requires a psychedelic trek into lo-fi tropicalia, lounge and death-afflicted sound collages that defy easy categorization … every rhythm, melody and yearning voice is placed exactly where it’s needed. The spirit of punk is undeniable in its presence, but the experimental bend of the songs is on par with the likes of Animal Collective, Faust and even the harmonic complexities of early Beach Boys records.” -Creative Loafing

:: sleepies ::

[via Richard Gin]
“Crazed vocals over lo-fi indie pop punk rock … Sleepies lack all the hipster bullshit that seemingly comes with being “lo-fi” these days. Instead focousing on the raw and sloppy insides of you know…actual songs. The more you listen to the band’s debut, Join the Shark, the more you realize this shit is chock full of melody.” -Sound As Language

:: the girls at dawn ::

[via Captured Tracks]
“Drawing from post-punk, psychedelic and 60′s pop influences, these three girls from Brooklyn make haunting melodies bridged with there/not-there ghostly arrangements.” -Captured Tracks
