Live on WFMU's Three Chord Monte, Oct 7 2010 Radio Program

Fortunately, this country-tinged fuzz-pop combo from Treviso, Italy, sound nothing like the Buggles song of the same name. As someone previewing their Cleveland show last month wrote, "Vermillion Sands sound like they could be the house band at the dystopian oceanside resort that features prominently in the J.G. Ballard short story collection from which the group takes their name." We concur! Their first U.S. tour ever has seen the band rock Gonerfest and be featured on a WFMU bill at Maxwell's in Hoboken.  -Joe Belock / 2010 [playlist for Three Chord Monte /WFMU]
