The Bison Burns

The Year of Nixon

Boxov

A bit of twang, a bit of jangle, a bit of alternative rock, a bit of something else thrown into the pot. Maybe something British… Darklands-era Jesus & Mary Chain covering REM songs… or is that too much of a stretch? It gets tied to that almost country sound sometimes. Not country, but American in the Midwest, traveling across dusty roads and hitching rides. The guitars move perfectly in time with the spin of the wheels, always just outside of Las Vegas. The vocals harmonize between the highways. Horizon wide dust stained sunset rock.
