Easy Answers from These Are Powers

I've oft heard critics or press people claiming artists to be "of the future" in what ever tense you have. Tin can garbage punk bands, garage chambered soundscapes echo devastation and nuclear apocalypse. These Are Power's cultish future is of colorful excess, there is no vast deserted plain or cities sunk into swamps. Conventional rock instruments synthed and triggered to make this futuresque party trio blind you with what they have brought back with them.

The video for Easy Answers from their most recent LP "All Aboard Future" (which is H+H approved) is costumed by the diabolical duo Ruffeo Hearts Lil Snotty who continue to supply Highfives and Handshakes, as well as the world, with mind mowing reclaimed dress for the underground.
