This is a band out of New York that is playing quite a few of the big shows. They're doing Paste on Wednesday at 1:45pm and SXSanJose on Friday at 5pm. Rolling Stone interviewed them and they said:
“Of course we’ll get the New York comparisons,” says Waldron. “But the band that actually brought us together was Joy Division and it’s kind of funny. This reverse relationship where the UK feels like we’re a New York band, but we want to be a Manchester band. I feel like if we were in an alternative dimension and from Manchester we’d get those comparisons. But we’re from New York, so everyone just thinks we sound like The Strokes.”
"I'm Just Trying to Love You" sounds like The Strokes. So does "Where is My Garden".
This was pretty good. You can hear the Joy Division influence, especially in the bass line.
