Pride Parade – (11/17/2009)
Pride Parade plays live in the WUOG lobby!
“The music? Gimmick-free rock. You can more or less trace the roots back to the Pacific Northwest circa the early ’90s. But instead of coming off as the umpteenth band mining a long-stripped set of influences, Pride Parade sounds more like a missing link from the era, a lost chapter in the Sub Pop catalog. Sad, slow and steady is the order of the day here, and the consistency of this record – in both senses of the word – is thick and solid. When white folks pick up electric guitars and evoke the blues, it’s always a tricky line to walk, but this stuff hits the mark in a way that is almost graceful.” – Jeff Tobias
