Dangerbird Records holds a pretty strong name, representing bands like Silversun Pickups, Eulogies, Minus The Bear, and Darker My Love. They just recently announced their signing of The Fling, hailing from Long Beach and taking the world of indie rock by storm. The Fling just returned from a tour with Darker My Love and Delta Spirit, lifting the heads of those rock ‘n’ rollers who thought they were too cool to listen to the opening act. They play deep, melodic rock that could be compared to bands like Black Rebel Motorcycle Club or The Jesus and Mary Chain (that’s right, I said it). They have a slight folk and psychedelic undertone, with guitars that make the blood in your chest surge to the surface, pounding drumbeats that echo against the outskirts of your soul, and dark piano keys that make your heart ache. Their songwriting is intimate and honest.
