Bumping this thread for new album. I haven't heard many bass guitar and drum duos... There's a local band called Street Eaters that are okay. I know there's a hardcore band I used to listen to that played some brutal **** with just bass and drums. Lightning Bolt. Awesome Snakes. Some meh band on Burger Records. The list is small. DFA1979 are pretty tight, I'd heard of um before but they just seemed like some lame 'hipster' band, kinda **** that gets all hyped up and glowing reviews on pitchfork. I was right but it's still pretty fun, obnoxious, party times music. Probably killer live.
you can hear the new album here:
Pretty killer stuff, if the second album is anything like the first I'll prolly dig it. Their lyrics are crap, though. Not that anyone's paying attention.
