Mersaultmusic + Shows in Boston This Week

I was bound to be a fan of London band, Mersaultmusic. As good friends with one of my favorite bands The Far Cries and recent signees to Fleet Street Records, it was basically pre-destined. Mersaultmusic play a furious brand of post punk that reminds me at times of The Talking Heads. It's probably the staccato lyrics, machine gun beats and huge screaming choruses that evoke that whole art rock scene from the 80s... who knows. All that really matters is that their songs will get in your head and stay there a while. Mersaultmusic are quickly becoming one of my favorite new bands and definitely are a band to watch in the coming months.
