About Grouplove:
"Their debut EP, including the single 'Colours,' which sounds as bright as its name -- buoyed by the elegant simplicity and Generation-X-NRG of the band's primary inspirations: Nirvana, Pixies, Modest Mouse, SoCal punk rock. A sound they cheekily refer to as 'funge.'" –Radar
About Walk The Moon:
“Walk the Moon take their name from the classic hit 'Walking on the Moon' by the Police, but these Cincinnati, Ohio dudes are influenced by a lot more than just Sting and his gang, and they showcase that on their self-released, debut album 'I Want! I Want!' - which is full of danceable pop and indie rock.” –spinner.com
About Death Cab:
“Death Cab for Cutie are wrapping up their seventh full-length album for release in spring 2011, and singer-guitarist Ben Gibbard [says] that its sound is ‘a testament to where we are as a band. It's not a guitar-based record. We've been into vintage keyboards and playing with that palette,’ he says, citing Brian Eno's Another Green World as a reference point. ‘We're not adding guitars because people will be expecting them… I'm so proud of this album that at this point I don't care if people don't like it.’” – SPIN.com
