Gaunt - "Hit The Ground"

Gaunt - "Hit The Ground": "Another part of indie rock's appeal is in its simplicity, its off-kilter moments all part of its charm. Gaunt's 'Hit The Ground' embodies this perfectly, following up the pogo theme of yesterday's AoL track. Sadly, after this, Gaunt hopped to a major label to expand their sound - which they did solidly, albeit somewhat diluting their rock power - before their frontman was tragically killed in a car accident. Also good for posthumous exploration: Kryptonite, their one release with Thrill Jockey Records."
