The 94 Knicks makes the classic type of garagey indie rock that’s at once uplifting and cathartic. The band writes surprisingly poignant lyrics, with songs that feel as if they could have been lifted from the scribbles of your personal journal, however their chunky guitars, command of dynamics, and lo-fi, fuzzy goodness keep their tunes upbeat and head-bop worthy. Catch the band live at Elsewhere (the new venue by NYC promoters PopGun Presents) on November 6th and, in the meantime, stream their single Street Fighter below.-Olivia Sisinni
