New Music | Steel Phantoms - Forer EP
Steel Phantoms is a Brooklyn based rock band started by longtime friends Aaron Harris (formerly of Islands) and Yos Munro. Months ago, I had received their original EP and couldn’t get enough of it. Last week, they released their next EP (Forer EP) I got the chance to listen to their EP (available on their bandcamp) and no doubt its even better than the last. The EP was recorded in a converted home / studio in Hartford CT. With influences from XTC the Cure & the Smiths this little gem of an EP has a new wave flavor, thats extremely catchy and danceable. The pounding drums, keyboard melodies that retain the vigor and irreverence of new wave and still feels really fresh.
Listen to the whole EP on their bandcamp.
