Add Modern Diet to your collection of well-named bands. There’s a number of ways to listen to this group, and all of them result in well-balanced aural meals. On the one, they are what happens to rock n’ roll when it cross-pollinates with R&B. Sort of like The Dismemberment Plan if they went to more Phish concerts. But it’s also a confessional of the most intimate order, cutting deep to the bone of what singer Jake Cheriff is concerned with. From the state of his bedroom (‘Modern Diet’), to getting unexpectedly lost (‘Lazy Beat’), their record ‘Commuter EP’ shows you all sides of this diverse three piece, from pain to joy, to fret-tapping guitar solos.
See it all come together when they play at Muchmores on December 6th. – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets).
