I love this band's name, Ringo Deathstarr. They play a rousing brand of shoegaze, for lack of a better description. I find this music really gets my blood pumping, and if it doesn't get yours going, then I fear perhaps you may be dead.
At first listen, the songs come across as a massive wall of sound. However, the music is deceptive, because you realize that tucked into the immensity of the sound is a vulnerability, only it's all wrapped up inside huge guitar chords, powerful drumming, and vocals that are hiding in a haze just beneath the surface.
