If someone has read my blog this far a thought has probably emerged to the reader’s mind: Will all the musical articles here be about indie and electro?
The answer until now would’ve been: How the hell should I know?! But I’m happy to announce that now it’s time for something completely different. Though today’s band is admittedly of the indie genre too, it’s not the emo indie stuff, and this has nothing to do with electro either. They define themselves as punk/indie/rock, and I can hear a definite garage sound there. So, what is all this about?
- pintandwefall - Somewhere I’d Be Worshipped (myspace / youtube)
I had listened to the band’s live stuff from YouTube before and they sounded just like a mess to me. But when I listened to their record today, it surpised me as a very good garage/rock/punk record. In fact I think I’m going to see their live at 45 Special on thursday.
“Little girl likes Poets of the Fall
It’s almost pintandwefall
So she’s our fan” (lyrics)
For foreign readers, Poets of the Fall is another Finnish band. It’s more traditional modern Finnish rock and not one of my favorites (I actually think Finnish rock music is in a crisis at the moment), although I like one of their songs, Lift, very much (youtube). The lead guitar sounds good and is actually quite imaginative for a more mainstream artist :)

They are playing with IWATSW at Semifinal on 22nd of March!
Yeah and on 20th of February they would be at Tampere’s “Yo-talo”, but without IWATSW. It IWATSW were there eith pawf, we probably should have gone to see them there and grab TrSqr with us :)
On March 7th they are with IWATSW+Jermaine @ Gloria, Helsinki.
On March 14th they are with IWATSW+Jermaine @ Henry’s Pub, Kuopio. I thought that it would be quite close to me too :)
