Yet further evidence that these days a band's gotta move to Brooklyn or starve, Sub Pop junior label Hardly Art has just signed Atlanta/Memphis/Austin-via-Brooklyn group Golden Triangle. The sextet has been described as a "super fucked-up version of the B-52s," which makes sense with its mixed-gender players.
The band has been furiously touring over the last year with King Khan and The Shrines, Quintron and Miss Pussycat, and Deerhunter, and they're keeping it up this spring and summer by continuing with dates opening for cult Brit group the Homosexuals. Golden Triangle plans to go into the studio soon to record its Hardly Art debut, which can be expected to drop in early 2010.
