Suggested Listening: Tereu Tereu

tereu tereu

Fredericksburg, VA’s Tereu Tereu and their new album All That  Keeps Us Together are growing on me every time I spin it.  It’s a compelling blend of classic DC post-punk with elements not usually paired with that genre – soft keys, strings, horns, and booming choruses of backing vocals.  If Tereu Tereu just played straight up guitar driven post-punk, they would be a solid band in my book.  But they don’t.  Instead they bring everything but the kitchen sink and then some to their big sound.  As a result All That Keeps Us Together sparkles.  It shines.  It keeps me listening.
