strfkr
This group just might be the hit of summer when it comes to concerts. I've heard rave reviews about their concerts. Also, if you like MGMT or Passion Pit..then this band is soon to please you.
Sharing their name with a punky Belgian girl group resembling the Donnas and one of the raunchiest Rolling Stones songs on Goats Head Soup (which was changed to the title "Star Star"), Strfker are an indie pop/indie electro band comprised of Sexton Blake's Josh Hodges, Junkface's Ryan Bjornstad, and Mr. Fredrick's Shawn Glassford. These guys are based out of Portland, Organ.

There latest CD is Reptilians. Perhaps you've heard their sound in a not long ago TARGET campaign with "Rawnald Gregory Erickson the Second."
They'd wanted to change the band's name to Pyramid, but it just wasn't in the cards. STRFKR has stuck.
At their concerts..you just don't experiment a trip on their music but instrument swapping and outlandish costumes.
