The Spinto Band

I’ve finally figured it out! The Spinto Band is the modern incarnation of the Sugarplastic.

This has been bugging me since I saw them live at Black Cat two weeks ago. Unfortunately, since no one knows the Sugarplastic, I concede an alternative, more accessible comparison:

Devo + Apples in Stereo w/ a spicing of R.E.M.


They are a band worth checking out. Pop-geeks from Delaware, and very talented musicians. My personal fave, “Oh Mandy” is from their first album, Nice and Nicely Done; “Summer Grof” is the single from their new record, Moonwink.
