Found sounds: Snowden

My friend Hill turned me onto the band Snowden last year, when he sent me a couple of mixes as very welcome housewarming presents for my new apartment. One of the standout bands was Snowden, an Atlanta-based combo who proudly make British-influenced shoegazing music in the tradition of the Stone Roses and Jesus and Mary Chain. We just added the band's self-titled EP to Rhapsody yesterday; it includes a couple of absolutely killer singles -- "Good News" and "Kill the Power" -- that will improve even the most lackluster of days. Click here to listen to the EP, then visit the band's website and download it for free (click on "Music").
