It's no mistake their initials sound like a lion's roar. Ra Ra Riot is a carthatic cacophy of distorted guitar, orchestrated strings, bass, keyboards, and vocals. After losing their drummer John Pike tragically last year, the troupe has manage to fill their sorrow with sound- "Can You Tell" releases bursting, frothing blasts of guitar and symphonic violin swells-  It's fearsome.
