The Black Rabbits

There’s a certain something…organic about The Black Rabbits. On the first listen, there’s no doubt that they could’ve stepped out of a time machine straight from the British Invasion.

After a few spins of their material, it’s apparent that it’s heavily influenced by bands like The Pixies, The Ramones, The Strokes, and perhaps (and I know I’ll get people mad because I’m drawing this parallel) the Beatles. Overall, it’s an easy, uncomplicated listen. Not overproduced, simple, yet solid harmonies, and the best part, no apparent auto-tune.

The Black Rabbits are one of those indie bands that has succeeded in not only capturing a timeless sound, but has also mastered the fine art of keeping it from getting dated. Even if you’re not a Brit-rock fan (I’ll be the first to say I am not a Beatles fan!), The Black Rabbits are a new band that will still catch your ear. Check them out on Amazon if you’re interested in purchasing.

   The next Death Cab?!? I wouldn’t go that far. They’re not even comparable to Death Cab. The Black Rabbits is more about simple lyrics, yet with a good sound that’s catchy. They’re good, in fact I for sure will be keeping a close eye on them from now on but I wouldn’t say they’re that amazing. Although they do seem to have a lot of potential. I definitely think we’ll be hearing more of them soon.

   There’s something very familiar and new about their sound. I really liked them from the first song I heard.

    “Hurry, Hurry” kinda reminds me too much of “heaven can wait” by Charlotte Gainsbourg. Decent song though…

    They’re really good. His voice reminds me a bit of Julian Casablancas. Just a tad.
    But definitely not Death Cab.

    Fantastic items from you, man. I’ve have in mind your stuff prior to and you’re simply too great. I actually like what you have obtained here, really like what you’re stating and the way in which you assert it. You make it entertaining and you continue to care for to keep it smart. I can’t wait to learn far more from you. This is really a wonderful web site.

    I really enjoy this. I plan on featuring you guys on my indie radio station! I am so glad that I found you! The music is simple, yet complex enough to draw the listener in. I love the very organic way the post-production ended up. Thanks! You’ve got my support!
