Tune In Saturdays: The Explorers Club
It appears the only internet I'll have for the next few days belongs to Starbucks, so this will be the shortest of short Tune Ins. This week, it's the Beach Boys minus the hangover with South Carolina's own, The Explorers Club.
At this point, you can only buy a 4 song ep on Itunes, but the first full length is on the way.
The Explorers Club - Forever (mp3)
From Stylus:
"To be fair, the Explorers Club themselves most definitely deserve the assist on that front; it’s hard not to objectify a band’s music when they’re clearly just as fetishistic as you. On paper, their sound probably isn’t anything too remarkable—“Hey guys! I just found another band that loves the Beach Boys!” “Is that the Association I hear in there?” etc.—but wait until you hear this stuff play out. Their EP might as well be one twenty-minute treatise on the ecstasies of getting something to sound just right—after all, it’s one thing to admire Carl Wilson or Phil Spector’s gifts, but it’s another thing entirely to try to make use of similar gifts in the same way."
