San Francisco, CA-based trio the Nodzzz lay down these stripped-down, half-in-tune garage pop ditties that stick in your head for days.  Their stumbling mini-anthems have hooks and smarts without being twee. And while they totally rock out, their cocks are most likely zipped.

The Nodzzz cross the whimsy of the Television Personalities and sublime brattiness of the Angry Samoans with the half-baked pop sensibility of early Guided By Voices. Their short but sweet self-titled album, released last year, has ten songs and is fifteen minutes long.  It’s got one of the best songs with whistling you’ve heard in ages, “(I Have) Bad News”!

The band’s currently touring all over Europe right now. If you are over there, get down to a show and jump around up in front to show you care — and by all means buy their records up. They’re a better investment than stocks these days (and sound a lot better too).
