A Pocketful of Deng
Boxed In
A Pocketful of Deng is not god-awful trash rock, as the name implies, but rather an intelligent, diverse, and melodic local rock band whose debut mixes the Talking Heads and Radiohead with more mainstream contemporaries plus a pinch of David Gilmore and Geddy Lee. "Such Magic Potion" opens with calming eccentricities bookended by spooky, metal-edged closer "EPA." Good start for a young band.
