New Mae Shi - "Lamb & Lion"

LA-based noise rock outfit The Mae Shi are set to release the fifth record in their mere four year existence, and with a change in lead singers (Jonathan Grey replaces Ezra Buchla this time out) comes a sound that's still large on two-minute sound detonations, now with new-and-improved pop sensibility. "Lamb & Lion," oddly enough, sounds like it could turn up in the middle of a Matt & Kim set, while "Run To Your Grave" will be stuck on repeat -- either on your iPod or in your head -- the rest of the day.

#3 (green shirt) looks like Nick Frost, aka Ed out of 'Shaun of the Dead'...

I got a SHI Alert and found this... wonder if any of the guys are SHI - Single-Happy-Interested... I have to check out their music... but if any are SHI - they should wear the SHI symbol... Cheers.
