up and comers- pow wows


for anyone who's been way stoked about the MIKAL CRONIN lp or the second new long player from THE OH SEES, i think you need to save up yr money to buy the debut album, NIGHTMARE SODA by TORONTO's POW WOWS.....

the CYNICS like these kids enough to tour with them and put out their new lp on the CYNICS' label GET HIP......

RECOMMENDED if you like any lo-fi, jangly, psychedelic, trashy or good garage rock... i mean if you like any garage rock at all....

if you don't at least kinda like the POW WOWS, maybe just need to give up on garage and listen to some quiet sad indie rock..... 

i know i'll play this lp quite a bit in the new future.......

i wouldn't usually included any press quotes about a band, but the POW WOWs have elicited some great  reviews and comments...... 

"Pow Wows gloriously carry the flower punk torch and continue in our debaucherous death cult tradition.  In the spirit of Simply Saucer and The Monks this recording bleeds and should be a hit during any afternoon Robitussin session.... My only advice is to keep hydrated... lots of water & GRAPEFRUIT... it will save you in the end...." -King Khan, Emancipator of R&B (Leader of the Pack) 

"If The Urinals hit head on in a car crash with Wire." -Gregg Kostelich of the CYNICS / GET HIP RECORDS

"The POW WOWS are some awesome garage-punk for the kids and we recommend them fully." -Le Noise 

"My ears got wood when I heard the Pow Wows." -Bill Kelly, WFMU-FM and Little Steven's Underground Garage channel on Sirius/XM
