Whereas so many indie bands are dividers, cordoning music off into precious little microniches, Public Record stand out to us as kind of representing everything that\u2019s great about music. Multi-gender, multi-race, and pulling from as diverse a pool of influences as Orange Juice and afrobeat. Live, they are revelation in grooves, and anyone can get into them: drum circle nerds, indie kids, boomers, old timers, whoever. The band operates on that greatest, most general music level, and it\u2019s just as evident on their new record, which came out yesterday and which you can listen to in its entirety above. They play <strong>Johnny Brenda\u2019s<\/strong> tonight with <strong>Mahogany, Arc In Round<\/strong>, and <strong>Ravens And Vultures<\/strong>, all of whom are plenty worthy in their own respective rites. Seriously, we do not pull this card often, but trust us: Public Record are your new favorite band, and the best thing is, you don\u2019t even know it yet.<\/p>\n<p ><small> This entry was posted \t\t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t\ton Wednesday, April 16th, 2008 at 5:07 pm. <\/small><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Source: Philebrity.com Link to this article For the love of all that is right and holy in music GO SEE [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_eb_attr":"","advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[47,87,88,50,60],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-992","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-artists","category-ht017","category-public-record","category-releases","category-reviews"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","acf":[],"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":986,"url":"https:\/\/hightwo.net\/two\/reviews-public-record\/","url_meta":{"origin":992,"position":0},"title":"Reviews &#8211; Public Record","author":"admin","date":"March 26, 2009","format":false,"excerpt":"Author: Jason Ferguson Source: Reax May 2008 \"Public Record is a messy, funky and wide-ranging party band.Weaving afrobeat, dub, indie rock, spazzy post-punk, chunks of driving soul and an atmospheric jazziness into their sound, the instrumental sextet is hellbent on defying any strictures of genre expectation.
