[mp3] Introducing // Britches

Written on December 28, 2010 by Andy in Music

Formed a year and a half ago in St. Louis, Britches make a completely destroyed noise/experimental brand of rock. Their debut EP, entitled Demo, is not bound by general songwriting rules. There’s not much in the way of verse/chorus/verse or structure, and that seems to be just how the band likes it. They’re not past abandoning the song entirely for 10/15 seconds in the middle of it to make a shit-ton of noise.

Think about the coolest kids at your high school (not the popular kids – the coolest ones), and think about them forming a band to play at the school’s talent show. Think about how bored those kids are with playing because no one is fucking cool enough to understand what they’re doing, so their set descends into a controlled anarchy for a couple of songs. That’s Britches.

You can get Demo in its entirety for free right now over at their Bandcamp page.

tym-pan-o-gram (noun)
an examination used to test the condition of the middle ear and mobility of the eardrum, and the conduction bones by creating variations of air pressure in the ear canal.

Basically, it sounded like a cool name for a blog intended to be primarily about music. We’d both had other blogs previously, but over beers it was decided that more damage could be done as a joint venture. And here we are.

We share a passion for the undiscovered and under-appreciated, and hope that you’ll be able to find something you love as well.

I like music. I can't describe how I came to like the music I do, because I don't know how or why, I just do.

Many years ago, Napoleon's brother, my great-great-great-great-great-great Grandfather, came to America. He was asked his name on Ellis Island while being processed as an immigrant. Not understanding English, he was under the impression that he was being asked how he had arrived in the new land. So he turned around and pointed at the sea vessel and said, 'LaBarge.'

I come by my music taste of my own free will. My friends listened to 2Pac, my parents to contemporary Christian and me? Sunny Day Real Estate. I can’t explain it.
