    Full Disclosure statement: My cousin is in this band, but speaking as objectively as possible, I think they're really worth a listen.

    They are called 'Les Racquet' (pronounced 'Less racket')
    You can listen to their stuff here and, if you'd like, you can also name your own price if you want to download.

    They have 2 CD's on there atm. Their first release is self-titled and features 9 songs. The 6-song EP 'Be Water My Friend' is their second release and (IMO) is a little better.

    They're based out of Brooklyn, but for the last 18 months or so they've been pretty much constantly touring. They have only appeared in Philly once so far, so they're still eager to get noticed here.
    If you like what you hear you can check them out at either of these two upcoming dates.

    Sat Sept 1: Harrisburg, PA: HMAC - Stage on Herr.
    Thur Sep 6th: Ardmore, PA: Maloney's Pub.

    Hey, I checked them both out. Honest opinion.... I really like your band much better. I'm totally a country kinda guy, but grew up on 80's metal. So I still appreciate hard rock. Great job there!
