I feel like our own–Los Angeles’s own, your own, that is–Radar Bros. have been on the verge (of something big[ger]) for about a dozen years or so now. That’s got nothing to with them, as they go about their business, but sad that we sometimes chronically fixate on what comes Next and seek to confer Next Big Thing status on bands, instead of appreciating what is here in the now, what has been right here all along. The Radar Bros. are busy having a respectable decade-long career and here I am worried about whether Bodies of Water are the next Tapes n’ Tapes…
Here’s a new video of theirs made by Bradley Beesley, who made F’Lips’s Fearless Freaks.
The new Radar Bros. record, Auditorium, is out on Merge on 1/29.
Nice. Lest we forget, Beesley is also responsible for the masterpiece that is okie noodling (replete with flaming lips soundtrack).
