KRLX may be off the air for spring break (Woo!), but the mp3 blog will proceed ad infinitum with no breaks (or maybe as long as I'm avoiding writing my final for Critical Methods).
One band that absolutely deserves coverage and recognition is Tennessee's Jeff the Brotherhood. Jake and Jamin Orrall are a guitar-and-drums two-piecer that carry with them that same crazy energy we saw with another Tennessee garage rock band, Turbo Fruits. Except while it's hard not to imagine the members of Turbo Fruits always jumping around and breaking shit, Jeff the Brotherhood carry themselves with a bit more finesse. Fans of early Weezer should really dig the first video I'm putting up here, 'The Tropics', while the second, "U Got the Look", sounds a little bit more like Sebadoh/Dinosaur Jr. I've thrown the corresponding mp3 tracks along with the videos, but their album 'Heavy Days' can be found in the record library. Until then, jam on this.
MP3 files will be available for a short time and are for evaluation
