Song of the Day - June 1, 2005

In my mind, June is the start of summer and you have to start summer with a bang. The Charming Snakes, a band that hails from both Austin, TX and Seattle, WA, two towns that know a thing about music, satisfy that requirement and more. Appropriately enough one of my favorite tracks of theirs is "All Great Things." The song is full of fuzzy distorted guitars, Iggy Pop influences, and oddly enough hand claps. The song just rocks. The band has opened for The Fall, Apes, and Pretty Girls Make Graves. Pretty cool if you ask me. Click her to listen.
