San Francisco garage/psych-rock troupe The Snares are a ton of fun from the opening bars of “What You Said?,” which happens to be the first song that they sent us to check out. The good news is that, with every passing tune on Spotify, they only get more enjoyable.
The obvious references are 2000’s garage rockers such as The Hives, The Vines, but there are also elements of British post-punk and N.Y.C. lo-fi in there. It’s fuzzy and deliciously noisy, but there are hooks galore buried within the semi-gnarly riffs and, honestly, they don’t take much uncovering. The Snares certainly leave an impression.
