bedsitter23picked up on this Cleveland band from Sirius XU (Sirius XM's version of a college radio station). undfortunately, I found out Pitchfork loved them, too.
Oh , well.
They are good, and they appeal to that lo-fi noise with screaming vocals (with a good feel for pop) that grabs me the way The Thermals do.
That said, they are probably closer to the 90s indie sound than they do the Thermals or The Pixies (In 2012, any band that screams automatically gets compared to the Pixies), and those bands (the DC/Dischord scene, the emo scene as defined by bands like Braid and Sunny Day Real Estate.
Indeed, the band falls at that intersection of commercial alt rock that is my thing and the rhythm/style of the emocore bands that my friend love; so that they resemble a bit that other band that did fell in similar territory in the 90s- Jawbreaker.
