Finally a band name that accurately predicts their sound. Nuclear Daisies materialized last fall with a seven song EP, issued on Portrayal of Guilt’s cottage label. The heavy, danceable dream pop carries the gooey sonic bliss of shoegaze, just enough of a trip-hop feel to play the band in a Nineties vampire movie, and Butthole Surfers-grade production effects ensuring use of strobe lights onstage. The septet, with Rob Glynn and Alex Gehring (Ringo Deathstarr) on vocals, has played sparingly, yet momentously: Oblivion Access, Levitation, and SXSW. Don’t miss Austin’s most vital, yuppie-hating hardcore punks Detox, raging after new alt quartet Touch Girl Apple Blossom.
