PREMIERE: SWTHRT - I Am In Misery
.jpg)
I can't say I was very surprised to learn of SWTHRT's Beat Happening cover, as that's the obvious first comparison to make upon hearing them. Move on to the non-obvious, however, and the New Order starts creeping in, the North Carolina duo's a more raw, DIY take on new wave than we've heard in awhile. What began as a school project for keyboardist Becca High quickly took life with guitar and vocals by Museum Mouth-member Karl Kuehn, and "I Am In Misery" highlights the pair's hooks at their best. Catch the track on upcoming album Compact Disc, which will be available for free download starting April 25.
