The Bad Signs

DIG IT.

LIKE THE SOUNDTRACK OF A CULT FILM THAT DOESN'T EXIST, ECHOED THROUGH THE CLOUD OF A MORPHINE DREAM - THE BAD SIGNS ARE THREE ACCLAIMED SONGWRITERS' ODE TO ALL THAT IS COOL.

THE BRAINCHILD OF TWIN BROTHERS NAT AND ROB RUFUS, FOUNDERS OF THE PROTO-PUNK BAND BLACKLIST ROYALS, WHO GARNERED INTERNATIONAL CRITICAL ACCLAIM WHEN DIE YOUNG WITH ME  (UNIVERSAL MUSIC GROUP) - A CONCEPT ALBUM CENTERED AROUND ROB'S BATTLE WITH TERMINAL CANCER - WAS RELEASED IN 2014.  USA TODAY  SAID THEIR SONGWRITING WAS LIKE "REOPENING A DIARY" WHILE THE HUFFINGTON POST  PROCLAIMED IT "OOZING WITH INTIMACY, FRAGILITY, AND GREAT HONESTY."

JOINED BY NASHVILLE ALT-COUNTRY MAINSTAY SAMANTHA HARLOW, WHO AMERICAN SONGWRITER RECENTLY PRAISED FOR "CONFESSING HER SINS AND ROMANTIC FOIBLES THROUGH A GUITAR THAT MUST KNOW HER BETTER THAN HER OWN MOTHER" - THE BAD SIGNS ARE A SEEDY TRIBUTE TO THE FRINGE OF 1950'S AND 60'S AMERICAN CULTURE, WITH REVERB FUELED GUITARS RESONATING UNDER A VOICE ROLLING STONE  APPLAUDED FOR "NUMBING THE LONLINESS" AND CMT  DECLARED "STRIKES A DEEP NERVE."

THE BAD SIGNS' NEW SINGLE, SUCH A FUCKED UP THING, WAS RELEASED THIS FALL AS A COMPANION 7" TO DRUMMER ROB RUFUS' MEMOIR DIE YOUNG WITH ME  (SIMON & SCHUSTER).  THEIR DEBUT CD SINGLE, HYPNO-TWIST, WAS RELEASED LAST HALLOWEEN.
