Consistency Counts.......2005-03-13
Just saw these guys live last night when they opened for Louis XIV and Hot Hot Heat. I hadn't heard of them and I really wasn't breaking my neck to get to the club early enough to catch their set because I rarely find the opening act to be as good as the headliner. Well I did end up making it to the show in time to catch their performance and boy was I surprised! They actually sounded good! Now don't get me wrong. This is not the most incredible band I've ever heard.
They sound kind of like Hot Hot Heat, but without the keyboard and effects. Nothing to special or unique. But what they do, they do it well. They are very energetic and their songs are irresistably catchy. Dancing Song, Charlie The Russian, and Modern Trance were a few of the stand outs for me, but there really weren't any songs that they played that I absolutely didn't like.
Pretty good band, pretty good cd.......2004-10-14
WSC has a pretty good base here in DC. Opening for groups at the 9:30 Club and taking the stage at the Black Cat, they've continued to increase their exposure- which eventually led me to them. I was happy when they put out the cd, because while I tend to enjoy less well-known bands, I dont want them to remain obscure for my benefit.
The group is pretty damn good. So's their cd. In addition to their music, they've got a pretty funny vibe, as they poke fun in their songs and at their concerts. I'd suggest you put up the money for the cd, even if you're just curious about them.
Oh, and the 5 stars is just cause they're from DC and I've seen them a ton of times. The cd is probably really a 4..
This band is amazing........2004-10-14
I just caught them live last night. They blew me away. Their energy is unstoppable, their music is innovative and catchy, without being poppy whatsoever. Clever lyrics as well. To me, they sound like a blend between ATDI, Franz Ferdinand and a Polka band on acid. Ok, scratch the last reference, but hell, its great music. Buy this and support a great new band.
