Supergoose / Press

“You know which interviews I like? The interviews with bands that don’t come pre-packaged. No expensive press photos with stylists efforting to make them look gritty and tough. No “lo-fi” videos made by a band that put down their caviar to grudgingly make an appearance on camaner. I prefer home-made videos of a band playing live to 20 people in a small club in whoknowswhere, the music almost drowned out by people talking. These are the bands that are hungry, passionate and make music because they love it, not because they’re trying to become the latest Stereogum buzz band. Haling from Philadelphia via Hungary (?!) SuperGoose make music that has industrial and electronic influences, but avoids the common trap of making music that’s lacking in emotion. To the contrary, their music reeks of desperation and power as they mix guitars, synths and beats to create a perfect storm of passion. TDOA writer Ravin talks about the passion with vocalist/guitarist Ram1. ”

“You can probably lump SuperGoose in with the number of Bucks County artists that I think have been really spicing up the Philly indie music scene for years (as well as the Brooklyn/NYC scene). I’m not sure what’s in the water up there, but I do know that the wooded areas and open spaces leave little to do while growing up except think, listen to music, take drugs and have sex which certainly helps nurture great musicians (and can often be their downfall). SuperGoose is a power trio that combines ominous mechanical sounding indie rock with layers of fuzzy synth-noise and vocals that ooze rock n’ roll. It’s a big sound that I’d like to hear through arena speakers. Check out the video above for “Do the Catapult” from the Pipedown Finale, and decide for yourself! myspace.com/supergooseband -”
