Cults

Cults - Cults

Cults are from New York and are mainly a two piece. They played two shows at this year's NXNE festival in Toronto and I couldn't make it to either. Bummer. But this is probably my favourite record of this summer, it's extremely difficult to get tired of it. It's reminds me of Rilo Kiley's more upbeat days with a slightly dancier feel. I hear some Flaming Lips in there at times, mainly the bass lines, but apparently Im the only one that hears that. Whatever...

Holy Fever

Holy Fever - 2011 EP

This is the new band from Dave and Neeraj of the Suicide File. It kind of picks up where they left off, still with that Rock n' Roll vibe, but less distorted guitars, less ferocious vocals, and lyrics that (so far) don't seem so hate filled. The more I listen to it, the more it grows on me. This record isn't out yet, so when it's released, buy it and support these folks. Good music deserves our attention. Financially, and socially.
