ONE TO WATCH
A Decent Animal (www.myspace.com/adecentanimal): Check into this San Francisco-based atmospheric rock trio that mixes the essence of Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Pavement and Band of Horses, with a splash of Tom Waits. Their catchy, melodic tunes are complete with vocal harmonies and great instrumentation, which bring a haunting dimension to the proceedings…in a good way. A Decent Animal are relative newcomers to the scene, and with the recent addition of Johnny Cruz (Samiam) on drums and Ben Andrews on guitar, their sound has jelled into its strongest incarnation yet. With a new record, crafted at Tiny Telephone, set to release this spring, the band is moving forward at light speed. Will we see you at the Silverlake Lounge on 1/14?
