CMU Approved
Approved: Up Died Sound
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 28 April 2010
It’s nearly a month since we featured a band from Brooklyn in this slot, which must be some sort of record. And it’s about time we got back on that horse, because there are still a whole load of great bands to get through from that particular New York borough. Today’s is Up Died Sound who, while relatively new on the scene, are purveyors of some immense (mostly) instrumental psych rock, which has “future Pitchfork favourite” written all over it (this is intended as a compliment).
Streaming on their MySpace page right now, you’ll find four tracks, all of which are fine examples of their sound, though if you’re in a massive hurry, give ‘Emotion Sickness’ and ‘If Time Is Evident’ a go for now. You’ll be back for the rest later, mark my words. A self-released album is on the way later this year.
