Fang Island  Why should Schubert have all the fun? In both sound
and attitude, Fang Island's self-titled 2010 debut was all about
the overture. Slabs of three-guitar ham steak shouldered happily
against wiggy electronics and a crowded ruckus of wails, the
sort of joyous choruses you'd hear from the Polyphonic Spree or
even the Flaming Lips, whom these guys have toured with. It was
outsized. It was fun. Shucks, it was even uplifting. It was also
kind of like a really loud, really exciting one-act play, so
we'll see what the next few months bring for the boys from Fang.
