Fall Music: The Phantom Band - The Wants

For those of us not in southern California and other warm climes, its time to start packing away the airy summer jams we've been cranking for the past months. Luckily, a bunch of great new music is on the horizon this Fall or has just come out. I'm going to be doing some pretty quick previews of some new stuff that has caught my eye recently:

The Phantom Band - The Wants (Oct 19)

I really enjoyed The Phantom Band's previous release Checkmate Savage and hopefully The Wants will elaborate on The Phantom Band's crunchy indie rock sound. With big Scottish accents and a general disregard for synth-y frippery, guitars take the fore with some interesting rhythms and as they say on Food Network BOLD FLAVORS! Their new track Walls isn't my favorite (or as attention holding as some) from them, but it is not too much of a departure to frighten me off.
