Noise-freaks Zorch topped our list of artists who submitted for consideration in our fast-approaching Best of Austin 2010 poll. Their whirling, swirling, disorienting synth & drums attack is being called "the saving grace of electronically-charged music" (thephotongod blog). They also just happen to be playing as part of Free Week at the Mohawk this Saturday (1/8), along with Attack in Formation, Look Mexico and MoTel Aviv. Here’s our full top ten, all of whom will now move on to the next phase of the poll:
