Exploding In Sound

Post by jasonmoriparty »

Okay, I don't know who is from the east coast, but we've got this awesome label over here Exploding In Sound Records. Total 90's indie worship and every band is super good. I posted Ovlov in a thread and decided to make this another spot. I think you guys will dig a lot of these bands.

Speedy Ortiz was on this label for a minute before signing to Carpark. I'll list them first, they sound like Pavement if Pavement was fronted by a female and was heavier and more hook oriented. Albeit, more fuzzed out. Their guitarist plays a gnarly duo sonic which he abuses at every show in awesome ways. He actually just left the band, which was a bummer because his playing was excellent. This is one of my favorite currently together bands of the moment. So good. Really dissonant in a beautiful way.

Pile is so sick. That's basically all I can say. They have this haunting sound, it's like folk but played loud with electric instruments and very unique and dark. I can't accurately explain it. It just sounds good. Just listen.

Ovlov are from Connecticut and are friends of mine. They are just killer. They get Dinosaur Jr. comparisons a lot. They're really a super loud indie rock band obviously inspired by 90's stuff and they do it super well. They have a new split coming out and the track below is from it. Really love this song. Long intro, but sit it out!

fun fact: the drummer of Speedy Ortiz used to play in Ovlov.
the guitarist also used to play in a band called Graph who were INSANELY good if you're into 90's influenced indie stuff. check this out:
