Teenage Wrist, featuring members of Chain Gang of 1974 and Swing Hero, create stormy yet catchy post-rock, reminiscent of Jimmy Eat World before the radio years. Their latest single, "Summer," is naturally a summer tune, with big dramatic guitars made for the outdoors; that said, it still feels like a good song to get sullen to, which makes sense given the tune’s origin in a failing relationship (according to guitarist Marshall Gallagher).
You can listen to EP Dazed at their Soundcloud and then go catch them at the Silverlake Lounge on June 18th. (21+, so, unfortunately, no teenage wrists allowed.) – Brian J.K. Regan
