Fozlur, Southern Gun Culture, and Cruiserweight


I haven't paid attention to the scene in like 2 years but when I did, these were the ones that rocked hard.


BRAVE NEW WORLD!!!!!


Fozlur uses old school Moog synthesizers in with trippy sounding electric guitars and a cool singer

Cruiserweight features a really hot ass frontwoman

and SGC have a song called brave new world

[MannyIsGod]

Cruiserweight is pretty awesome.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Mookie used to sing Cautionary Tale and Dearest Drew so much it was so annoying.



Southern Gun Culture, son.

They're not my favorite but I know them. They are really good friends with my uncle and have played at his house many of times.

Wrong location. Spacemokeys would be under I35 coorider bands.


CBF, check out Gimmie Fiction or Kill The Moonlight.

Alright I will. What kinda music is it?

[MannyIsGod]

What the Shins would be if the Shins could rock and were way better.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Never heard of 'em.

[Vashner]

Back in the day .. before I became i'll. I did an all nighter there in the SxSW with the armband thing.... it was uber. Lot of music. We must of hit 20-30 clubs..

[Cant_Be_Faded]

That doesn't sound conservative

[Vashner]

Don't belive stereotypes.


EDIT: Oh btw.. don't EVER ever.. drink a "Hand grenade" in Austin..

Fuckin BAD!!!fuck yeah!

[MannyIsGod]

If I could afford the armband, I'd do that every year. You can meet a lot of people and make some pretty good lists of people you would like to know in the idustry.

That being said, when I went to SXSW last year, I almost had to kill some industry fuckers near me who wouldn't stfu when John Butler was playing. And then Aimee Mann had to come on stage and suck.

Leave it to the Dylan to save the show.

Troy Dillinger - friend of mine, and he's pretty damn good. Very popular in Austin.

Back when I was in college, Little Sister (had to change their name to Sister 7) was bad ass.

A friend of mine hooked me up with some MP3's of Echoset a while back and they've got a good sound.

[Drachen]

This is the best austin band
