City Electric : Five Easy Pieces

Witty lyrics and quirky guitar lines punctuated by a tight rhythm section. With the onset of autumn upon us, this album would sound good next to Isaac Brock’s Ugly Casanova.

Album Notes

Latest review from Gloriousnoise:
....the five-song mini album touches base where you'd want it to. There are witty lyrics and quirky guitar lines punctuated by a tight rhythm section. With the onset of autumn upon us, this album would sound good next to Isaac Brock's Ugly Casanova or a Tweedy project, and it's no wonder since vocalist Bill Bungeroth has performed with members of Califone, Boas, and Manishevitz and drummer Ryan Juravic is also a member of Healthy White Baby.

From Power of Pop:
CITY ELECTRIC Five Easy Pieces EP (Self released) This debut EP from this Chicago-based quartet showcases the band’s penchant for wiry and edgy post-punk birthed in England & New York. Thus elements of goth, noise pop and shiny melodic rock all make an appearance here on the fairly eclectic material. In that respect, there are similarities with bands like Ambulance LTD. Personally; the closing “Quiet Life” suggests that despite the band’s stated experimental bent, it may be in the traditional pop ballad that City Electric makes a name for itself. And why not? Good music, whatever its format. A band to watch.
