THE DODOS - Visiter
This SF duo's impressively full sound fills out the spectrum handily with a fiercesome drum style that cracks through the highs yet thuds in the room-mic'ed distance, and double-tracked, casually catchy vocals that are quick to make your acquaintance, blending with bluesy acoustic playing that drills its way in uninvited, making The Dodos a raised-profile 'newcomer' (they've been at it under this name since '06) ranking up there with fellow pell-mell melodic popsters The Ruby Suns. Visiter's purportedly an attempt to better reconcile recordings with their live show; find out at the El Mo on April 9th.
