Austinist Show Preview & Giveaway: ¡Forward, Russia! at Stubb's Indoors

Leeds's latest import ¡Forward, Russia! churns out quirky pop-rock riddled with start-stop guitar riffs, crunching bass lines, and irregular tempos. Add their habit of using numbers to name songs, and you've got your next favorite post-rock act. The band builds its sound on a platform of eccentricity, but infectious melodies and plentiful harmonies are abound in their energetic anthems, allowing the multi-layered noise to flourish. When it all clicks, ¡Forward, Russia! appeases fans of bands like the Futureheads and We Are Scientists. Atlanta shoe-gazers Snowden open.
