Bridges and Powerlines fall into a rare sub-genre: Dark Dance Rock. The contrast between the band's brooding guitars and danceable synth and drum rhythms is a breath of fresh air. The lead singer sounds like Paul Banks from Interpol, and thats a good thing. Add this Band on Myspace [...]
Lately, while everyone has been basically creaming themselves over the new Arcade Fire tracks (and, like myself, bemoaning the lack of available tickets to their upcoming New York shows), I've been digging through my iTunes/memory for some new music that has perked up my ears in 2007. One such act is an NYC quartet that Ryan took me to see right before the holidays called Bridges and Powerlines . Their live show at Pianos that night showcased some really great vocal harmonies, which I found really impressive and think is the band's standout strongsuit. [...]
Bridges and Powerlines is the result of the collaboration of New York City native Andrew Wood and Chapel Hill, NC native Keith Sigel.

Amrit and all those cool NYC tastemakers have been up on Takka Takka for quite a while, but I like to let things filter down sometimes to see if it lives past the hype, so I'm just now checking [...]
