The Seattle trio Lake of Falcons has a killer new 7-song EP out on Beep Repaired Records. This is a band that walks a line between more introspective indie rock and screamy, noisy, gritty hardcore and does it all with a DIY attitude. Mine came via a CDR lovingly packaged in a hand screened cardboard sleeve. You can tell this is a labor of love and that the guys in Lake of Falcons mean business.
Their music is intelligent, heartfelt, and uplifting but somehow leaves me with visions of desolate stretches of rural highways. The songs are oddly catchy, sloppy and unrefined in the best possible way. This is the music that the blue-collar kids in their winter coats are dancing to I’m dancing cuz I just love this kinda shit. RIYL: The Casket Lottery, John Cougar, Hot Water Music, etc…
