Look around, look around

am syndicate

This one just has a great vibe. I usually hate words like that - "vibe," "groove," etc. - but I'm not sure there's any other word for it. The organs, the hi-hats, the vocals... it's organized chaos at its best.

AM Syndicate - All The People Under The Sun.

AM Syndicate are based in Austin, on the Austin-based label Nova Star Records. This song comes from their album Liberation, out on Nov. 13. The band has three members - drummer Vince Durcan, singer/guitarist Omar Chavez, percussionist/keyboardist Golfball (!) - and their record is what you'd expect, based on this track. It's creative, inventive, and sonically surprising on every track. It's refreshing to hear a band that spends equal attention on their songs and their sound.

You can pre-order Liberation here.
