Nice Nice-Uh Oh

I had the pleasure of cutting a rug to Nice Nice last time they were in Minneapolis. In addition to being great musicians and really nice guys, this Portland duo (guitarist Jason Buehler and drummer Mark Shirazi) can also carry a musical conversation ranging from the Headhunters to Eskmo. In Uh-Oh, a song from their 2005 Audraglint release, Yesss!, a thick groove donning dubplate armor does battle with wispy Yes-like vocals and strategic stabs of guitar. Be sure to check out their recent Warp release, Extra Wow and catch them June 3rd at the Turf Club with Toronto's Holy Fuck and the Moon Goons! Are you ready for the ruff ride?
