February 16th, 2019: Russian Baths

The February 16th edition of Look At My Records! is the first in series of episodes previewing the upcoming New Colossus Festival. This episode features the Brooklyn noise-rock duo, Russian Baths! The band released their excellent EP, “Penance” last year and are slated to play The Bowery Electric on March 9th as part of the New Colossus Festival. We chatted all about the evolution of their sound, which progressed from wanting to sound like Yo La Tengo to kind of sounding like a shoegaze/Big Black hybrid. The band is heading to SXSW next month and have plans to release a full length in 2019, so keep your eye on this duo! You can purchase "Penance" on cassette via Good Eye Records: http://goodeyerecords.com/product/penance/
