The Twilight Sad recently played at CMJ, bringing their brand of anthemic shoegazer rock stateside. Originally from Glasgow, they've been picking up steam as of late. The songs themselves are dense and sprawling; while seemingly repetitious, new layers of sound join and weave in and out of existing parts until the song climaxes with a thunderous crescendo. Brutal drums + driving bass = sexytime. Plus, the singer is really bitter. Gotta love that!
Thanks to Stereogum for pointing these guys out.
