Bad Veins
From: Cincinnati, OH
RIYL: The Strokes, Okkervil River
Cincinnati duo Bad Veins is one of those bands whose location seems to be the reason they haven’t broken to a bigger audience. Cincinnati just doesn’t have the type of scene other cities have, or the hip factor. But the music being made by Bad Veins is not the type that just sits around and goes unnoticed forever. Stripped down to the simplest elements, they are a garage rock band along the lines of The Strokes, but they build off of that with an extra layer of more diverse instrumental elements.
Currently on tour with We Were Promised Jetpacks, Bad Veins should pick up a lot of new fans, and a bit more attention from the blogger world.
