I’ve loved all the great garage bands to come out of the area in the last few years, namely Denton ; Wax Museums, Uptown Bums, Bad Sports, etc… Here is a band from the far-off Minneapolis scene, a two-piece band known as Birthday Suits shred loud, fast, and high-strung songs that last about 2 minutes – no more, no less. What catches my interest is how close the vocal harmonies are for such a fast-paced band, I mean sure its easy for the Raveonettes to pull that off playing slow indie pop, but I digress. Recently Birthday Suits put out a great split 7 inch with the legendary locals Marked Men through Nice & Neat Records entitled 7 Inches For Your Ex, below a wonderful sample is presented to you in all its 2 minutes of glory.
