Small Black:

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

“Oh you sleepy hipsters. How can one complain? Your music is so catchy, your demeanor so lame. You play your keyboards through a tin can, your beard is that of a Neanderthal man. On the street I may confuse you with a bum, but god do I love that reverbed hum.” I would say that sums up Small Black to me. A great band with more hype then content, but can you blame them?  Now Small Black is by no means bad, but once you read a little more into them I was left with a bit of an odd taste in my mouth, I’d imagine it tasted like being fed with a silver spoon, but I digress. Small Black uses toy casios, reverb, loops and a bass to get their message across (where have I heard that before) and they do it well. They’ve got a sound mapped out, except they threw out the map and bought a GPS. You cant really go wrong here, so get high put your headphones on and enjoy this little EP they recently released on CassClub.  Check out this video of Small Black as they try so hard to stay awake for their song Despicable Dogs, which can also be heard below.
