Shark, the Whisperians, and Milk and Blood June 22, 2011

"Shark? are from new york city and this is an incredible debut. 'i'm an animal' sounds like some undiscovered 1976 band from new york city. it's lo-fi and intimate yet still has total dynamics. think a mix of modern lovers, pavement and the strokes." - Rough Trade

We first got to know Chris Brunelle as a member of Mo Matching Drapes, then as a member of Aldenbarton. He's now started a new band called The Whisperians that we caught recently at Pianos. The band is a tight power trio that plays what may best be described as punk-pop -- as opposed to pop-punk. Somewhat reminiscent of Ted Leo or Elvis Costello as opposed to Blink 182 (thank God). They're energetic where they need to be and laid back when that's the way to go. And Chris is clearly a guy who likes to play songs with other people who like to play songs for people who like to listen to songs. As simple a concept as this may be, it's something not always as evident as it should be, so it's good to see it in the Whisperians. -- Stereoactivenyc
