Artist: Busses

If Busses new 2-track EP Metal/Shangri-La is an indicator of the trio's desired sound, then they may be on to something. The first half "Metal" begins with a guitar that gradually increases in decibel as if first heard faintly approaching in the distance, creating the lure of anticipation. Moments later, it arrives with a bang as drums kick the track into gear. When the lead vocal finally enters the equation it seems to take control as a calming force. The opposing track works in reverse the vocal creating a peaceful comfortable setting that the other instruments [...]

Busses will be the direct support for fellow Philly rockers Virtual Virgin tonight at PhilaMOCA. The Fishtown outfit draws from every artery branching from rock 'n' roll and oh how it makes them thrive. Busses will start down a path of buzzing 70s metal Zeppelined-out electrics and end up in an easier listening Cymbals Eat Guitars alternative 90s mood rock. Next thing you know you're in a shit storm of emotional post-punk wails and proggy post-hardcore Volta experimentation. In the journey of Busses, you don't know where you're starting and you certainly won't know where you'll end [...]

From the folks at The Fire : In an attempt to fill the void left by festivals past, and offer a good alternative to flocking to the shore, many of Philadelphia's finest local musicians will participate in the Inaugural Sundrop Music and Arts Festival. The festival includes three great nights of music at the Fire, and an all-day, two stage show and craft fair on Saturday May 28th. Stages will be located at Trios Tratorria and outside of the Fire, with vendors offering fine art, crafts, and food lining the path between the Trios Stage [...]

Classic rock inspired trio Busses are playing The Fire with an impressive list of openers. Dave Brett and co. go through genres like their girlscout cookies, playing prog-rock, psychadelia and blues without blinking. They will probably be kicking out the jams from their fine self-titled debut, but expect to hear some new songs as promised in their recent email to the media outlets. Joining Busses is the avant, neoclassical orchestrations of Corey Duncan's Oh! Pears who had been keeping busy collaborating with Deli favorite Attia Taylor, but now are back on their lonesome. The man behind [...]

Busta still raps fast as sheeet and his on stage rants are just ass funny as Ghostface . This video is sick, Busta's DJ teases the MIA crowd with some MIA homegrown beats. Busta likes to get the club going schizophrenic. Wayne comes out and kills his live jawn, vodka witha spritzer.

Philadelphia 's Busses are rolling into Johnny Brenda's tonight. Don't expect slow numbers though, because if they get below 50 BPM the whole place is going to blow! The multi-faceted Fishtown trio, led by Guitarist/Vocalist Dave Brett, explores many corners of the rock spectrum with a psychedelic hue that allows their music to seamlessly meld together without becoming monotonous. Brett's Built To Spill meets Mars Volta vocals are the perfect compliment to the driving guitar and drum combo that result in blistering and meditative tunes. Last year, Busses released a very solid record that combined their [...]

Where Is My Mind?: Hezekiah Jones "It's just great to see him headlining the big stage tonight at World Café Live. Though I'm sure the crowd will be filled with friends and family for his latest release Have You Seen Our New Fort?, I highly doubt they'll still be the only people there to see him. It will also be a triple record release party with Up the Chain and Joe D'Amico. The New Fort album officially drops on March 29, but you can grab your advance vinyl copy at the show. We [...]

Opening are two other cool local bands Royal Shoals and Upholstery and a special DJ appearance by Tips For Teens DJ's who'll be spinning throughout the night. Some of you may recall that Busses were one [...]

There's plenty of truth to be found this weekend in the old saying "Too much music, not enough time." Every year when I go to SXSW, I am immediately overwhelmed by the choices and sheer number of bands that I want to see. But the secret to making it through SXSW is to not get hung up on what you'll miss and to just focus on a show-going schedule that you can actually make work. This year's Philly F/M Fest is a lot like that: a ton of excellent music (and movies), and no possible way to take [...]
