Tapes 'N Tapes

Tapes Consider me officially turned on to Tapes 'N Tapes.  This new band is great.

I had read about them on Brooklyn Vegan, of course.  Where else do you learn about new bands these days?  Brooklyn Vegan saw them three nights straight in early January which certainly got my attention.  This photo of the band was scraped from Brooklyn Vegan as well.

But its not easy to find their music yet.  There is a self titled EP that I can't seem to find. And their new record The Loon is coming out in early April.

But my friend Raj turned me on to some of their music and I am hooked.  Great stuff.  Raj mentioned something about Arcade Fire in his email to me.  But for me, they are in the Violent Femmes/Pavement mold with a little Arctic Monkey guitar thrown in.  Which is great.

Insistor is likely to be the single if there is one, but there are two back to back songs on The Loon that I love.

10 Gallon Ascots

Omaha

I hope you like them as much as I do.
