Band Spotlight: Sakes Alive!!
Posted on January 30th, 2008 by Matthew
Who: Sakes Alive!!
What do they sound like?: A mix of Strike Anywhere, Polar Bear Club, and From Ashes Rise, sans the crustiness.
Why YOU should listen!: I’d must say, for only having a three-song demo, Rochester, NY’s Sakes Alive!! are miles ahead of many bands at their level. Right off the bat, I was incredibly impressed when I popped in their demo last week. The songs are undeniably urgent, passion-filled and grab you from the first chord. All you NYC kids should stop by to see the band play at Lost and Found Bar in Greenpoint on Feb. 29th.
You can check out Sakes Alive!! on our Late Night Mix player to the right. Also, check out an awesome interview our friends at Mutiny Zine did with SA!! leader Chris here.
