Tweens

Tweens

These Cincinnati trash-pop scrappers peg themselves as doo-wop among other descriptors, which is a little misleading if you associate doo-wop with smooth, scrubbed-up vocal groups in highly controlled settings. Early demo โ€œBe Meanโ€ bears the specter of Spector, sure, but Tweens specialize in rocket-fueled ragers like โ€œRattle&Rollin'โ€ and โ€œDonโ€™t Wait Up.โ€ Their debut LP, due early next year on Frenchkiss, promises to be among 2014โ€™s most uncouth pleasure bombs, equal parts catchy, jacked-up, and jagged. โ€“ Chris
