Saint Motel are hard to define – they play a swaggering mix of indie power pop (maybe), some glam rock (probably), a bit of prog (possibly), some power punk (almost certainly), but, as with Puzzle Pieces it all comes out bursting out the traps in a gloriously tight and original way.
I like the blog. Thanks for all the new bands to look up. I’m promoting an interesting one off project, Suede Ape, that brought together some pretty talented and creative LA musicians from different backgrounds including Geoff Rowan (In Sepia), and Andrew Monzon (Last Legs). Instead of a typical guitar, bass, drums line up, some electronic elements (kaos pad, synth, drum pad, etc.) were used to keep it fresh. There was no big concept besides the simple idea of editing a jam into an album, but that’s kind of what’s exciting about an unplanned thing like this: your not sure where it will go. Have a listen. See if you like…
