Young and well-read, this San Francisco duo have, thankfully, spent very little time listening to (and even less time being influenced by) their rock ‘n’ roll contemporaries. Instead they’ve forged these songs from their own blood, sweat, and tears, and brought them to life with the simple tools of voice, guitar, and drums.
I bought "The Throes" a couple of weeks ago, and had to come back to this entry to thank you for pointing me to this album. Hot damn, it's good stuff.
