Don’t you just love stumbling into great new music? Some such music is from Connecticut’s Titles. From what I’ve heard of their 2006 self-titled album on Welcome Home Records, they are an excellently crafty mash-up of jangly Midwestern guitars, country-blues riffs, decidedly indie vocals, and an abrasive rhythm section. Perhaps they are the East Coast’s answer to Birdmonster? Perhaps they are forging completely new territory that raggedly rocks like Red Red Meat meets Christie Front Drive. Anyway you size ‘em up, Titles appear to be ready to make you tap your toes, nod your head, and (thus) rock your socks off. They even have a new split 7” out on Saftey Meeting Records that deserves your attention. Cheers.
