Tonstartssbandht

Tonstartssbandht is a band of brothers. They come from Orlando via Montreal, and are currently to be seen wandering the streets of Chinatown in a hazy stupor. Using samples like a slowed down Big Country the duo put together a debut LP of melodic wonder. An When is self-released on their own record label, which features other collaborations like Superbud, and the former Not Not Fun recorders, NASA. While their knob-twiddling is funky as all get out, and their voices float beautifully in and out of their soundscapes, the pair has also been known to get on drums and guitar and put the White Stripes to shame. There isn't even a contest as to the better all-White-family-band.
