INTRODUCING YOU TO BANDS YOU MIGHT  NOT KNOW, BUT TOTALLY SHOULD.

Rainbow Kitten Surprise

I was stuck choosing between two bands this week and threatened with an abolishment of friendship were I not to choose Rainbow Kitten Surprise over The Derevolutions this week. How do I reconcile what I wanted with what I stood to lose. I think surrender under those conditions would have been less industrious than simply making two for this week. RKS (I’m not typing that name out each time) makes Indie-Pop that can be in turns catchy and light one moment, then heavy with meaning and emotion the next. Formed in North Carolina as dorm room jam sessions between original two members Sam Melo and Darrick Keller, the band expanded to its current lineup of five members churning out alt folk rock tinged with influences like Modest Mouse and Kings of Leon with a touch of Blitzen Trapper for good measure.

No thanks to anyone who under threats made me do double the amount of work today. I have a lot of pools and beaches that are being neglected for this.
