the weirdest thing just happened...I came across a band that I never thought would gain any recognition.
I was browsing the Atlantic's website and found this.
a couple of years ago, I went to Blake's in Berkeley to see these guys. I was originally supposed to go with a friend of mine who liked the band but ended up calling someone else, as my friend came down with a bad flu. neither of us knew the band, but we both enjoyed the set a lot.
Persian rock bands aren't a dime a dozen, after all. there even have been songs written about how sparse pop music is in Iran.
anyhow, I never followed up with the band, but they're sounding great. I might just go a-scouring for their music later.
visit them on MYSPACE. one of them even has Jimmy Page-like locks goin' on.
