From their website -
The Florence based new psychers will take you on a musical kaleidoscopic journey made of colours and space voices on flowing waves. They are influenced by the immortal 60′s melodies mixed with a touch of 90′s spleen. They toured Europe several times (recent tours December, February and May 2014) and they played at Primavera Sound Festival in Barcellona (May 2014). The Vickers released the new album “Ghosts” at the end of March, an example of their new sound, a clear example of modern expanded pop/rock! “Sounding like The Beatles after one too many acid trips”
Also, here is the song/video that first grabbed me and impressed the shit out of me....
I've always thought they were a stellar band ever since...
I know that they aren't the bestest best band out there, but I find them very enjoyable, entertaining, and fun to watch. I would really like to see them, but I'd have to go to Italy for that to happen.
Some of the best bands out there are undiscovered (or only very little "discovered"). I spend a lot of time on Jamendo , Soundcloud, and Bandcamp (I know I should probably look on Spotify and Reddit, but I found that I find better music on those three.) There are a lot of great bands that given the proper exposure, could lead to something big. This is how I found the Vickers, among a dozen other great outfits.
So, listen up, let me know what you think, and we'll see you tomorrow...
