Insistor
Xl Recordings
INDIE
Minneapolis' TAPES 'N TAPES were one of the highlights of this year's SxSW festival, (9 jam-packed, fun-filled gigs in 4 days and a whole lot of love from MTV, ROLLING STONE, NME and the NEW YORK TIMES. On the strength of one self produced EP the band were touring America with the likes of THE FUTUREHEADS, THE STREETS and METRIC.
'The Insistor' is the first single from their debut album 'The Loon'. Hints of the basement indie of PAVEMENT, the eclecticism of TALKING HEADS &the frenzied power of THE PIXIES.
Amazing vintage video for 'Insistor' can be clicked on below and watched at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5g2eUh7TWE&search=tapes%20n%20tapes
The CD and 7" editions of the single come with exclusive non-album b-sides 'Crazy Eights' and 'Frankfurt' (demo) on the 7".
PITCHFORK "Stuffed with hook after addictively anthemic hook" ... ROLLING STONE "As loveable as it is bewildering" ... NME "Proving the hype to be aptly justified"
