THE ORANGES BAND
On T.V. (Lookout!)

Reviewed by Alan Wright



There may just be a resurgence of that sort of angular, post-punk music coming, what with bands like The Strokes and American Death Ray getting a fair amount of attention. These guys mine a similar territory, drawing on the influence of Television, Wire, the Minutemen, Mission of Burma, the Feelies and the Embarrassment, to name a few. Their songs are quite catchy and minimalist in nature, with some neat guitar/keyboard interplay going on. I'm digging this!
