Editor's review
What happens when a guitarist who's cut his teeth on "Freebird" hears a Rapture record? New York's dance-rock revolution gets a North Carolina take in the Charlotte group's gutsy tracks, which blend Southern-fried blues riffage with Up North edge and beats as sharp as knives.
Biography
North Carolina rockers The Sammies have known each other since they were kids-- especially brothers Donnie and Frank. This isn't a surprise to anyone who has heard the band's self-titled debut. The Sammies sound like a band twice their age-- each individual member's parts mesh seamlessly with the others creating a hooky, southern-tinged indie rock that refuses to stay out of your head. The Sammies' live shows have been the talk of the southeast for quite some time, and the band's first long player is already getting loads of praise from respected outlets like Pitchfork and Harp Magazine. If by some chance you haven't heard The Sammies yet, you're missingï¿?ï¿? the coolest and most fun new band around. Get familiar with The Sammies now-- if you wait any longer you'll be way behind the curve.
