Musiktipset: Screaming Females

För nÃ¥gra dagar sedan hörde jag en fantastisk lÃ¥t som rev tag i mina trumhinnor och fick min mun att formas till ett välmÃ¥ende leende. Bandet ifrÃ¥ga heter Screaming Females och precis som ett av mina absoluta favoriter frÃ¥n förra Ã¥ret…

…Titus Andronicus (kom ihÃ¥g vart ni läste det först: Titus Andronicus kommer bli en av 2009 Ã¥rs större indiehype) sÃ¥ är även detta band frÃ¥n New Brunswick. New Brunswick larmar pÃ¥ rejält. Jag kan härmed inte annat än att hÃ¥lla med Insound med att Screaming Females talar direkt till 16-Ã¥ringen inom en. Just nu är dom aktuella med nytt album vid namn Power Move som vid skrivande datum ej är släppt, men finns att förbeställas via skivbolaget Don Giovanni Records (JA! dom tar PayPal).

Screaming Females are one of those bands. The force-of-nature kind that only comes around once in a blue moon. The kind that blows minds; changes lives, the kind that re-ignites and redefines what music means to those whose faith may have waned in the most fundamental of ways.

“The band—guitarist/singer Marissa Paternoster, drummer Jarrett Dougherty and bassist King Mike—live and breath their hometown of New Brunswick, NJ, and are possessed of the ethos, drive, and spirit that has made the punk greats great during a time when fewer and fewer artists have the gumption to operate as such. Since their 2006 inception, the band have self-released two full-lengths and one 7″, contributed songs to two splits, and self-booked over 260 shows, scoring a mass of critical praise and accruing throngs of devotees along the way with both their recorded output and devastating live shows. As their legend grew to epic proportions, Screaming Females were approached by many labels and various industry crackerjacks. All were denied—until 2008, when the band signed to the one label that mirrored their values and championed their hometown, Don Giovanni Records. Now, with their third and most scorching full-length (aptly titled Power Move) in the bag, Screaming Females are poised more than ever to do what they do best, on their own terms, their way.”

Magiskt bra helt enkelt!

Denna videon är dock INTE magiskt bra, och jag övervägde att skita i att ta med den, men vafan, lÃ¥ten är ju fantastisk…
