Picture us standing with my foot up on the monitor, close-fisted in my attack on the rock. Picture the last day of school, sliding dad's station wagon into first and leaving that shit in the dust. Picture us sticky fingered in basements, or walking in slow motion at the end of the movie. Picture listening to Stylofone.
What a great fucking band. Good name, good sound -- not too heavy, but just heavy enough. The drummer swings the set along, the acoustic guitar comes in for just a second, and the harmony solo kicks around. The build-up towards the end gives me chills. It's just one of those songs I could listen to over and over again. Believe me, I'm doing it right now.
Stylofone are a New York band, preparing to launch their first release - a uk-only single. This song comes from that, and it's not the best of the lot. All three tracks on the EP are rock solid jams. It's true. the single will be out on Young & Lost Club records, which is based in London. I'm sure this is just the beginning for the boys, who just have some really great songs. I haven't seen the live show, but my guess it that it's a wonderful thing. Highly recommended listening.
