One of the brightest new bands to be introduced to me is The Interiors. They are a 3 piece composed of Chase Duncan (vox/gtr), Collin Jordan (bass), and Brian Lubinsky from Chicago, IL. They sent me their debut LP and it is one that has slipped under the radar of many people.
The band had many setbacks even with such a recent start. After they self-released an EP the band got signed to the label 54°40’ or Fight. The band was hit with bad luck when Chase the guitarist & vocalist lost half an inch of his left index finger when a metal door was shut on his hand. The band’s future did not seem to positive, but after a year of rehabilitation Duncan was ready to play guitar again. They banged out an album that surpassed even the band’s highest expectations.
There debut album is a well crafted work with strapping rhythms, sharp guitars, and the drums add depth to the songs with constant shifting taps. The songs aren’t too complicated, but everything that they have in their songs has a rightful place. There is no unnecessary aspects to their songs. Some are catchy, some are
The album is a good blend of indie rock that has it all. If you want to describe them with past bands, think Sonic Youth, The Pixies, and R.E.M. Listen to the engaging songs ‘Powerlines’ and ‘Wingman’ and you will see why The Interiors are gaining respect from the likes of Under The Radar. These guys know what they are doing and it shows. I really enjoyed this record, and I think you will too.
