Pewter Cub

About Me

"...the exhilaration of finding a band like Pewter Cub, conjuring the stirringly raw and guileless sounding basement-aesthetic that’s been hard to come by in post-2000-indie-rock (think early Guided By Voices, a more-surfy Young Marble Giants, or the caustic synth garnish of The Fall)...the Hamtramck duo started in August '05 and render an eloquent, heartfelt fuzz-rock, minimalist in its rhythms and straight to the point with its dreamy hooks, brazen booms, synth buzzes and hypnotic vocal tones." --Jeff Milo, Real Detroit ............................................................ ...................................................... "Minimalistic. Lo-fi. DIY. These are all relatively accurate descriptions of Pewter Cub — a local band that’s new to us. Clickity-clack drums, dark melodies, and super-trebly guitars give off a less sing-songy version of Times New Viking vibe — kind of what we imagine Helium’s four-track demos to sound like instead. Either way, it’s pretty cool stuff." --Ryan Allen, Detour ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------ ..
