The Phenomenal Handclap Band - 15 to 20
Sounds like: Electric Light Orchestra, George Clinton, Steppenwolf
Tags: Editor's Pick, indie pop, funk, psychedelic
By Daniel Surwit on Dec 4, 2009 | This is a present day album that can really put your parents' old turntable to use. In an age when music is becoming increasingly electronic, the Phenomenal Handclap Band's debut self-titled album is decidedly vinyl. This group is poppy, but with a b... read more →
