New Swears - Funny Isn't Real

 
Inquisitive stoned hipster asks : "So, what kind of music does your band play?" 

Also stoned hipster musician replies : "Uh.. I don't know... rock I guess.."

The world of rock and roll is about as dirty as my pile of socks that pay homage to my unbearable laziness. There are so many different sub genres and styles to take into consideration when you're describing the sound of your favourite rock band. New Swears falls into a category that isn't serious by any means, but they are tight as fuck.

Thighs Live @ CJLO

Toronto's Thighs entered our studios on Saturday afternoon armed with a giant wall of cabs and amps that they ran their whole set up through. This made my job of recording it quite simple, when they were so in control of their sound. After setting up a few mics they proceeded to immediately rip into 3 songs off their new self-titled album. Showing as much control and power in their playing as they do with their massive sound set-up.
