Sandrider Play KEXP Tonight at 8 pm

Posted by on Sat, Jan 7, 2012 at 12:31 PM


If you don't know Sandrider by now, your rock cred is officially revoked. The jet-propelled Seattle heavy rock trio is comprised of Jon Weisnewski and Nat Damm of Akimbo and Jesse Roberts of The Ruby Doe/Kid Congo & The Pink Monkey Birds. Their self-titled debut sports streamlined, steamroller chord progressions and tig-welded riffs that take turns driving and flying over Nat Damm’s notoriously unflappable beat. It’s hard rock, but you can write to it. (Which is nearly impossible with most rock records.) You could do lots of things to this forceful and sophisticated avalance of sound: World domination. Fortress building. Ruling your kingdom. Fishing. Turn on KEXP tonight at 8 pm to hear the business.

We enjoy playing chess to this album. It's perfect.

We play the hell out of this album while we play the hell out of chess. It's perfect.

Of course you have to absolutely shitty taste in music to have any kind of "cred" by The Stranger. Hey Grant-tubby-alcoholic: gone to rehab yet? At least THOUGHT about buying that treadmill? Cue "your mom" joke (i.e. the only part of Grant's brain that hasn't been destroyed by alcohol and cocaine).

I dig. Big Business comparisons, i suppose, amongst other things, but I dig.
