Death on Two Wheels - The Past and the Present

What do they sound like?

Death on Two Wheels is an indie rock band from the South...and it shows. In fact, if seventies Southern rock got together with nineties grunge and had a child, that baby would be Death on Two Wheels; picture Chris Cornell singing for Lynyrd Skynyrd.

They really do a great job of melting the two sounds together without sounding cheesy, but with a lead singers whose name is Trae Vedder how could you not be destined for rock greatness?

Paste Magazine quote:

Jean Uhelszki from Paste magazine says, "Death On Two Wheels makes rock ’n’ roll dangerous again, with slurry-blurry lyrics, half-cocked dreamspeak of portents and regret, and a formidable guitar attack that recalls the nasty duels Allen Collins waged with Gary Rossington..."

Where can I see them?

The band’s You Tube account and Tumblr blog make them endearing and accessible. So if you're in the mood to rock out, please check out Death on Two Wheels.

Also, on a related note, Record Store Day is going to be on Saturday, April 18th this year. At Criminal Records in Atlanta, Georgia, Death on Two Wheels will be performing a free show at 11:00 in the morning. They will have their newest album on sale for $7. How exciting!

Harrison Hudson - Blood, Sweat And Sweat

Harrison Hudson is an up-and-coming band with a base camp in Nashville, Tennessee. They are on the indie label Favorite Gentlemen, which is run by a couple members of Manchester Orchestra from Atlanta, Georgia. My personal favorite song on the album is "Kill Her with a Kiss" and "Baby Blues" is also very good. Have a download and if you are going to SXSW they are playing on a Favorite Gentlemen set there.

Synthar - Evenings & Weekends

Synthar is an indie/electronic band in the vein of The Postal Service. Their songs are very good with well-written lyrics. They are also incredibly catchy! If you only listen to two songs, I recommend "Standing Still" and "Beating Drum." There are 11 other songs on the album that are also great. Have a free download and get hooked on Synthar!

For fans of The Postal Service, Headphones, Pedro the Lion, Zero 7, and 8-Bit.

The Deep Vibration - Veracruz EP

The Deep Vibration is a four piece from Nashville, Tennessee who is deeply influenced by classic rock music (i.e. The Beatles, Neil Young, and Bob Dylan). They are a self-proclaimed "rock and roll band playing American music."

For anyone interested in seeing them perform live, they will be heading to Augusta, GA on March 28th and Savannah, GA on April 4th. Check out their tunes and I'm sure you will be packing the car for a trip!

For fans of The Beatles, Neil Young, Bob Dylan, and Dr. Dog

Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins - Rabbit Fur Coat

This is Jenny Lewis' first and definitely best full album outside of Rilo Kiley. She has a newer album, Acid Tongue, but in my opinion, this one is better. The songs are folky with many times just an acoustic guitar with vocals. The download comes from the Team-Love record label. Give it a listen!

Frauniebarger - Graverobbers

Indie rockers, Frauniebarger, are giving away their self-released, debut album, Graverobbers. It is free if you give 5 email addresses, or you can pay what you want (as low as $1).

What do they sound like?

They are a four-piece from Georgia and have been together for about a year. They have been compared to the music coming out of Athens, Georgia in the eighties, minus the obvious unrelated sound (REM and the B52s).

The vocalist has been compared to Andy Hull from Right Away Great Captain and Manchester Orchestra and to Ben Gibbard from Death Cab for Cutie and the Postal Service. Fans of Death Cab for Cutie, Manchester Orchestra, and the Shins will love this!

Where can I see them?

They just finished up a set of shows, including a free benefit show for the Muscular Dystrophy Association in their home town of Ellijay, Georgia. Right now, their concert calendar is blank; however, the band says that they will be playing show again very soon. So keep your eyes open.

I want a shirt; where can I get one?

They just added some cool shirts for sale on their website (a link is provided below). They are quite nifty, black with the Frauniebarger logo on them. Individuals wanting a small are out of luck. They are already all sold out.
