Sounds Like
No single one of the above, but a distillation of many. Sounds a lot like The Real.
Blazing through the San Francisco night sky like fizzing, explosive Rock Comet of Doom, The Real is moving through 2009 with more gigs, more music, more fizzing and exploding.
Our new EP, Fear in the Easy Chair, is finished and ready for consumption. Samples of four tracks are currently posted in our Featured Songs section : Dream in Red, Shot Goes Wide, Winter Song and Horrorshow.

The Real are inspirational! I should know, they inspired me to write a song based on one lyric of theirs. Complexity, talent, and groundedness is what makes The Real so accessible and irrestibley listenable. Great stuff you guys! I wish you the very BEST!
