Tangiers sounds like the product of many late nights listening to Wire, New Order and Television records. They had a few highly touted records and were the buzz band du jour for a little while in 2003 thanks to their highly tipped
Hot New Spirits. They had a solid second album in Never Bring You Pleasure but things went a wee bit sour around the same time they underwent a divisive lineup shift. Still a solid band, featuring Shelton Deverell of Zoundz, along with Josh Reichmann and James Sayce. Jon McCann, who did a stint in Guided By Voices, joined on as drummer.
Here's three-quarters of the band ...
And bassist James Sayce makes four.
Shelton in red.
Some tippy-tappy drumming.
Josh and his tattoo of whatever-the-heck-that-is.
Some singalong action.
I liked them, but I can't say I remember any of their songs a few days after the event..
