Although they punctuate their band’s name with a question mark, Shark?, play the kind of fun, irreverant and party-ready rock n’ roll that is best paired with an exclamation point. Combining the lo-fi recording aesthetic of many of their peers with quirky pop melodies and the raw energy of 70’s punk and sloppy 90’s indie bands, these guys offer a bit of something for everyone. Initially all the band’s recordings (standouts include Noise Maker and School Nights) were done solo by singer and guitarist Kevin Diamond in his apartment, but recently the full band entered the studio to record together. Diamond told The Deli the new recordings will still sound like the old Shark?, but more “fleshed-out” and containing “a bit of ear candy.” With the band already receiving praise from the L Magazine, Oh My Rockness, and more, the upcoming release should be more than enough for this Shark? to rise to the top. – Read Bill Dvorak’s interview with the band here.
