Lost Sock: White Rabbits


The White Rabbits are a great new band out of New York City. Their music is a blend of post-punk, tropical, and indie rock. They describe themselves as honky-tonk calypso, a description that perfectly explains what is to be found on their debut album Fort Nightly. The White Rabbits have a sound that is rarely heard in indie rock. Island percussion and a strong dose of Joy Division peppers the album making it one of the years standouts. Check out the song "While We Go Dancing" on the band's MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/whiterabbits) to hear what I am talking about.

I caught the tale end of them at the Monolith Festival in Denver. They're innocent kids that play good music.
