SXSW Preview: The Lees Of Memory – We Are Siamese

SXSW is fast approaching and come March, Austin will have no lack of bands evoking the sounds of the ’90s, from those who’ve kept it going since those days to the reunited acts hoping to relaunch their career and on to the newer performers inspired by the sounds of yesteryear.

Nashville’s The Lees Of Memory will be one of those bands and they come by their ’90s sound honestly – members John Davis and Brandon Fisher were formerly in alt-rock one hit wonders Superdrag (remember “Sucked Out?”). However, rather than revisiting the power pop sounds of that group, The Lees Of Memory dive headfirst into Kevin Shields territory with some blissed out shoegaze and they do it well. “We Are Siamese” is the lead single off of their album Sisyphus Says. Give it a listen.
