“Loose Cricket”, Lifeguard

This way: Loose Cricket

Chicago’s Lifeguard play the kind of knotty noise rock that makes you want to instinctively punch the air—which is to say that it’s very good. They self-released their debut album Dive last year, and it draws on everything from math-y post-hardcore and nonchalant no wave to nimble indie rock. It turns out they share more with fellow band FACS than their mind-bending, melodic rock sound or Chicago roots—Lifeguard vocalist and bassist Asher Case is the son of FACS’ Brian Case.
