DNNM + Willow Wood + 80N7 + CMJ presents:

Ringo Deathstarr is an alternative rock band from Austin, Texas, which channels such diverse influences as Fugazi, The Cure, The Smiths, My Bloody Valentine, and The Velvet Underground. The band was originally formed by singer/songwriter Elliott Frazier in 2007, and released their eponymous EP on the same year. This was followed by a string of singles and a series of international tours[2] hitting both coasts and the streets of the UK and Japan. The band's debut full-length album, Colour Trip, was released in February 2011 by Club AC30. They toured with The Smashing Pumpkins in the winter of 2011/2012.


If punk-rock is a response to anything, it's pop—music, culture, that which is mass produced and consumed—which is why their combination requires such a delicate balance. With State Lines, singer and guitarist Jade Lilitri successfully maneuvered the two simultaneously; the band's brand of fuzz and bounce, bite and fun, found its stride just before it fizzled out. Jade does more than maintain balance under a new name, Oso Oso seems to extend his capacity in both domains. Indeed, the songs that make up his first full-length Real Stories of True People Who Kind of Looked Like Monsters feel equal parts coarse and tangled and inescapable. "Wet Grass," which begins with thudding toms and guitars that chirp like jungle birds, builds into a chorus thickened with muscular chords and layers of vocals. Jade's melody on tracks like this and "This Must Be a Place" seem instantly hummable—the sort that coax the listener to swim through the thrumming chords and ride the adjacent harmony, if not sing alongside him. Even his bold, buzzing voice seems to express the album's duality—it cuts through the italicized guitars on "Another Night," surfs the wake of "This Must Be an Entrance," hops on "Where You've Been Hiding's" pins and needles, and maintains a confident melody throughout. Thankfully, Real Stories never becomes too pop or too punk, and never stumbles into pop-punk's shiftless landscape. Instead, Oso Oso sets pop against punk, lets them tear into each other until the result is as ragged as it is anthemic.


Philadelphia bred punk band emerges from the basement scene with melodic and emotional songs capturing youthful sentiment with mature execution. Combining all the ferocity of rock with the soul of R&B, Mumblr consists of four friends who play music because they fall short in almost everything else. Closing the first decade of the 21st century, these four supple boys came to Philadelphia independently, with the desire to come of age. The the city of brotherly love proved to be an excellent stomping ground.
Since October of 2013 they written, self-recorded, and released 5 pieces (including their first full length LP "Full of Snakes" to be released September 16th, 2014) solidifying their unique, self branded sound, fuzz punk.
With the help of the homies, their label, and their 'think for yourself' attitude, they come to you with one message, do whatever you want whenever you want.
