Sound Team: Movie Monster
With their own brand of get your butt movin' rock, Sound Team, is one of the newest in a continuing succession of DIY bands bringing their sound to the masses. Started by brother's Bill and Michael Baird in a Portland bar, the now six-piece Austin group has successfully exceeded the expectations set by the Work EP on their highly anticipated debut, Movie Monster. This time around, the Team traverses a great deal of musical terrain, going from "Get Out", a "driving teaser anthem" to darker, more experimental tunes like title track, "Movie Monster". Live, Sound Team translates their tunes from disc effortlessly, creating excitement from the first bang of the drum without sacrificing quality. You can catch Bill and Matt on MTV2's Subterranean on July 16th or check them out at their website, just do it soon because Movie Monster is definitely one of the top ten of 2006!
