Artist Spotlight: Nice Cliques
Genre: Alternative Rock, Art Rock
Junkies' Description:
When these guys sent us their stuff and described it as alternative Russian art-rock, I wasn’t quite sure what my ears were about to experience. The experience was great. Nice Cliques are band with amazing guitar riffs and solos, well written lyrics, and some nice keys thrown in here and there. Other than that, it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what they sound like. I’ve heard great ballads, great hard jams, and at one point, I heard their keyboard solo sound like some you would hear out an Emerson, Lake, and Palmer song. So yeah, lots of fantastic and different tunes here. And yes, the lyrics are English, not Russian.
Album: Populra Art
Album: We Don't Even Like Them
