Editors' Picks: Beehive and the Barracudas / Paris Texas
Adam: I finally got around to picking this up last week and it's such a fun release. Beehive and the Barracudas, a band that features members of Rocket From The Crypt, PeeChees and Red Aunts, play a decidedly weird mix of punk, garage, psychedelic rock and no-wave noise that's entire unpredictable from one track to the next. This song's from the full length In Dark Love, released last July on Swami. It's entirely uncharacteristic of the rest of the record, but that can be said about just about every song on the record:
Beehive and the Barracudas - Stuck On The BusFor more info head over to Swami Records.
Scott: The sound of Paris Texas is as sweet as candy, without the aftereffect of tooth decay. Pop-rock never sounded better than this song:
Paris, Texas - Hip Replacement [demo]
The final version of this song will appear on Like You Like An Arsonist, the band's new full-length out June 8th on New Line Records.
