jhulud Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 Whirr - June 7" PREORDER - limited to 250 copies on "coca cola bottle" green vinyl Bay Area post-shoegaze sextet WHIRR has signed with NYC rock label Tee Pee Records. The band will enter a Northern California recording studio this August to lay down tracks for its full length debut and follow up to its recently released Distressor EP. The album will be preceded by a limited edition vinyl 7" that will be issued this fall. WHIRR (formerly Whirl) generates suspenseful songs of soothing, razor sharp guitar textures backed by soft, cooling vocals. The band's supercharged spirit rejuvenates the '90s shoegaze sound, providing a widescreen update for the post-millennial era. WHIRR's wall of lush guitars, breathy vocals, dreamy synth and thunderous drumming propel listening ears into a near-cinematic realm where instantly catchy melodies and emotional, enveloping atmospheres hang perfectly in the balance. The group's celestial lean has been described as "if My Bloody Valentine decided to cooperate with Sonic Youth," and has drawn comparison to influential acts such as Slowdive, Lush, Ride and The Cocteau Twins. http://teepee.hasawebstore.com/june-7-whirr/product/INS98963 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get them for a couple of bucks on iTunes. They are probably on Youtube at this point as well. Good tracks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
