White Denim are one of these fun, offbeat bands that you discover randomly but then take a solid place in your music collection from there on out. I have their substantial discography on my r4i card at all times.
The trippy four-piece from Austin, Texas are great band to attach the term 'experimental' to. Their music is said to draw influence from a wide range of genres, including: dubstep, psychedelic rock, blues, punk rock, progressive rock, soul, jazz and experimental rock.
Their latest album 'D' featured at number 46 on Rolling Stone's 50 Best Albums of 2011 list, and is described as ripping "through indie rock, psych blues, punk country and hippie boogie in hard-driving punk-pastoral garage jams", and I can't think of any description to better cover it.
It's been a highly acclaimed album of the year, and its sort of genre-mash-up means it will appeal to fans of many different areas of the music spectrum.
