Me You Us Them
Add To My Artists

For a three-piece band, Me You Us Them makes a lot of noise. With Ryan Reesey on guitar/vocals, Ian Ljungquist on bass/vocals, and Zach Eichenhorn on drums, this Brooklyn-based trio offers an ingenious melding of the punk ethos -- i.e. rock-as-catharsis -- with high-tech innovation. The result is an anthemic wall-of-sound blitzkrieg that gets deep down and scratches an itch you didn't even know was there.

Appomattox
Add To My Artists

Since moving to NYC in late 06 Appomattox have constantly challenged the limitations of the Rock Trio; getting mesmerizing, effected tones out of their instruments & juxtaposing complex harmony with - for lack of a better word - some Really Fun Rhythms. All packed inside consistently addictive 2-minute songs comprised of brutally simple melody & razor-sharp message. "Sweaty, distorted, political, pop-hooks echo." [-Appomattox forced to describe their own sound in 6 words] Their new, self-released, [semi-] eponymous EP "Appmttx" -the title is a play on the spelling of their name that the band & its fans often use as shorthand- is no exception. Singer/guitarist Nick Gaynier's lyrics express sincere outrage at the state of our politics, media & income distribution and his vox are delivered in a punk tenor that is pure Rock n Roll. Gaynier's guitar is classic-sounding & cutting; and the rhythm section of Dave Nurmi on bass & James Mello on drums is warm & propulsive. The parts seem smartly composed to make you want to move as you soak in the song. Listen to Appmttx for free, watch videos, like on FB & follow on Twitter here- http://ap [Read more]
