SXSW Song of the Day: Eagulls – Tough Luck

eagulls

Every year, young, brash men from England descend over here in groups of three or four, guitar in hand and ready to impress. Some, like Bastille, aspire to sound like Coldplay, while others, aspire to be something different. Eagulls is a band from Leeds with either an amazing or a horrible name, I can’t decide. What I can decide on is that they bring a fresh breath of rock with them. I think some people call them post-punk, but whatever, it is just good, loud rock and roll. Their debut album is out March 4, which is convenient because they will have that in hand with them as they try to take over the world in Austin a week later.
