Fang Island Live Ogilvy New York

Fang Island


Asunder MP3 by Fang Island. When they played here at office for me I was impressed. Here’s a track from their newest album called Major. It’s heavy and melodic when it counts with their sense of prog rock.

Headache MP3 by METZ. As we exchanged tweets back and forth the other day with @Obits on the awesomeness of this band. We compared them to Janitor Joe & GvsB. They are dirty and probably will never make even close to what a actual Met makes but rock-n-rollas can dream. This is the good shit all AM/REP.

Lovecrimes MP3 by The Afghan Whigs (Frank Ocean Cover). This is sounding in the vain of their slick album 1965. All Whig fans should be pretty stoked with this studio cover. Looking forward to some sexy dancing at the coming shows on the east coast.

Prog Guitar Rock by Fang Island, Gondliers & Yukon

Prog Guitar Rock by Fang Island, Gondliers & Yukon

Fang Island three guitars and sometimes a microphone

Welcome to the laziest type of music post you’ll ever get out of the RS blog. Here’s three great songs by three equally progressive prog rock guitar bands.

Punk IS Dead! MP3 by Gondliers from their EP2 get it here. It’s amazing what you can do with some speed, chops and a octave pedal these days. There should be more music in the works from these Somerville Massholes as they just added a singer. Making them a trio. So looking forward to the next release!
Medallion MP3 by Yukon. This Baltimore band has something new in the works which features the virtuoso guitar work of this 20 year old kid named Sam who was taught by this brooklynite dude named Ben Greenburg. This track is very DC hit liquor era shudder to think sort of sound. Great shit. Gets crazier here.
Welcome Wagon MP3 by Fang Island from their debut. This vocalless three guitar Brooklyn metal slaughter is pretty uplifting. In fact lots of churchy like keyboard parts and vocals on other tracks like “The Illinois”. I dunno pitchfork likes them but you decide.
