The Audiophiles: new EP

My favorite rock and roll high schoolers The Audiophiles have released a new EP, Run Away. These four new tunes are fresh indy pop but still informed by the musicians' deeply eclectic influences, from folk to nerd rock, bluegrass to pure punk. For more than a year, the Audiophiles have been tearing up Bay Area bars, including ones they're not old enough to get into. This is their tightest, best produced, and most, er, mature recording to date. Check out the new sound of young America.

Good music. Not a fan of the dopey lyrics, but, heck – they’re in high school. I predict that this band will be ruined by a major label within five years.
