Band To Watch: Mini Mansions

If pure sound had the capability to project images on a blank wall, Mini Mansions would be worthy projectionists. On a break from Queens of the Stone Age, Michael Shuman melded heads and locked arms with longtime friends Tyler Parkford and Zach Dawes in a dusty room in the San Fernando Valley. Here, they began a collaborative séance out of which birthed Mini Mansions in January of 2009. Though their triangle is usually confined to piano, bass, and a cocktail drum kit, the LA-based trio generates a Technicolor spectrum of sound drawn from the baroque, gothic, psychedelic, and cinematic realms. Their debut self-titled release curtsies to the past, bows to the present, and foreshadows a progressively more abstract future.

Truth: I fucking hate Queens of the Stonage.
Truth: This band is fucking good.

They sound like Pet Sounds era Beach Boys, and I love me some beach boys. Dig the video for Kiddie Hypnogogia, today’s video of the day on Spinner.com. Get at some tour dates on their myspace page.

“Hypnogogia is a neural disorder where the subject experiences a state of temporary paralysis between sleeping and waking states,” Michael Shuman of Mini Mansions tells Spinner. “We all wanted a video to suck up pieces of that same grey zone without being outlandishly surreal, which is what the artist Druid Beat ended up spitting out in many, many colors. Though I don’t remember playing him, I’ll miss the squid monster.” Wake up and dream with the video below.

Sometimes, later on in your life, you listen to bands that your parents presumably did a bunch of drugs to.

And now that you’re around the age where you feel like you get it, the songs get much more fun to listen to.

Man. I wish I were alive when this band wasn’t 812 years old. I’m almost positive they didn’t make a bad song for at least two decades.
