Having opened in the past for the likes of Temples and the Horrors, New York band Spires are set to release their debut self-titled EP 18 September on 401K Music. Derived from the Jesus and Mary Chain and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Spires tosses in a little bit of twee as well for a good balance of braggadocio and sensitivity.
Singer/guitarist Matt Stevenson, when asked to provide a little insight into the new record, replied condescendingly, “Five unrelated songs recorded in different times in a studio, a basement, and mostly at home.”
