NOISEY QUIZ: WHICH BANDS PLAYING CMJ ARE REAL AND WHICH ARE FAKE? CAN YOU FIND GRINGO STAR?

Soon, hundreds of musicians will flock to New York from all over to play the annual city-wide festival, CMJ Music Marathon. Every band is looking to break out and become the hot new buzz band. But with over 1,300 artists performing at over 80 venues across five days, some bands are bound to get lost in the shuffle. You might think for an artist, the best way to stand out is to pour your heart and soul into your songwriting, practice your songs endlessly, and put in years of hard work building up a fanbase that connects with your lyrics. WRONG. In reality, all you have to do is come up with a clever band name, sit back, and watch the buzz pile up, baby. Studies show that most people won’t even listen to a band that doesn’t have an exclamation point or a bad word or a pun in its name. It’s just science.

But how are you, the music-consuming public, supposed to keep track of all these up-and-coming artists? Take our quiz below and see if you can identify which bands below are the real bands playing CMJ and which are made up. Good luck, music fans! Look for Gringo Star when you TAKE THE QUIZ HERE…

Alt Citizen premieres Grand Vapids’ “Worth Fearing,” comparing the vocals to “Father John Misty’s more tender side”

Despite the track’s ominous advisory in its title, Georgia’s own Grand Vapids’ “Worth Fearing,” the first single off of their upcoming debut album Guarantees, is nothing that’ll put you on edge. Quite the opposite, actually. The vocals feel like whiskey and a fireplace on a winter night — sort of similar to Father John Misty’s more tender side — and the lush layers of guitar provide a swirling, ambient undercurrent to get lost in. You can feel the carefulness of their melodic peaks and valleys, but what’s most refreshing is how this dreamy, well-mapped journey avoids careening into sterile territory. The slow sway will put you at ease, but there’s always a sonic surprise just around the corner. Dive in. LISTEN HERE…

Gringo Star are one of only four bands mentioned in The New York Times’ CMJ Music Marathon listing this year

? CMJ Music Marathon (Tuesday through Oct. 25) This annual New York showcase returns next week with over 1,000 club sets. There are too many shows to list, but here are some that are worth checking out. Gringo Star plays a set at the downtown watering hole Niagara on Wednesday at 11 p.m. Despite the Beatles nod, this young quartet from Atlanta takes its influences from the Kinks and the Rolling Stones. With four shows, on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, the Chicago garage-rockers Twin Peaks will be busy playing tracks from their new record, “Wild Onion,” which surfs the same wave of brash three-chord zeal as Thee Oh Sees and Parquet Courts, and includes the unsubtle Beach Boys tribute “Sloop Jay D.” On Thursday at the Bowery Ballroom, the most sexually charged and reliably great duo in blues-rock, the Kills, celebrate a decade together. On their 2011 album, “Blood Pressures,” they revealed a newfound vulnerability, especially on the sepia-tinged waltz “The Last Goodbye.” (The band’s follow-up, unfortunately, does not have a release date yet.) The New Wave pop ensemble Pompeii, a staple of college radio, shares the glossy, echoing melodicism of Death Cab for Cutie or a-Ha. This Texas band performs on Thursday at the Delancey, and its new release, “Loom,” has the decade-old Pompeii brewing fresh buzz. At various times and locations,cmj.com/marathon; a limited number of badges are available for $140; prices for individual shows vary. (Anderson) READ HERE…

Consequence of Sound on Gringo Star’s new single “Long Time Gone”: “Hits you right in the guts… and the heart.”

For their first two albums, 2008’s All Y’all and 2011’s Count Yer Lucky Stars, Atlanta garage rock outfit Gringo Star had the good fortune of working with famed producer Ben Allen. As he did with the likes of Animal Collective and Deerhunter, Allen managed to maintain the band’s innate sound (a rambunctious blend of garage rock and power pop) while adding a distinct sheen of studio polish and professionalism. However, when it came time to record album No. 3, the trio hit the studio alone, hoping to channel more of a “punk-ish” energy. The resulting record, last year’s Floating Out To See, was a slightly grungier, more intense effort than its predecessors.

Gringo Star will once again fly the DIY mantle with their upcoming seven-inch, having recorded in their own basement. Before the effort hits digital retailers this Friday (October 17th), the A-side “Long Time Gone” is streaming below. A lighthearted, classic rock ‘n’ roll romp, the track features a surprisingly minimalist arrangement, with the focus primarily on some light distortion and a flamenco guitar that weaves in and out of the mix. Despite the blissful instrumentation, the vocals sound wholly unaffected, as singer Nicholas Furgiuele slurs lines like, “I know I got to let it go a long time gone.” It might lack the band’s past elegance, but the track still hits you right in the guts and the heart.

Substream Magazine premieres new Tesla Rossa song “Kaleidescopic Soul”

More than anything else, Tesla Rossa is an organism that has evolved rapidly and constantly through touring, writing, and common living over the past five years. Having played festivals such as Starry Nights, Nashville’s Road to Bonnaroo and CMJ Festival in NYC, they are poised to bring their tightly-composed rock and pop rarities to a larger audience.

Members Jason Denton, Ryan Tullock and Nathan Wahlman met through a polygon of romantic mishaps that would have tested even the best of friendships. Oddly enough, the group gravitated toward one another and before long were writing, recording, and playing wild shows at houses and venues alike. Young and full of fire, they threw themselves into the college party and house show circuit, spreading the good times and igniting many a late-night dance party. As they grew in life experience and musical maturity, however, it was time to see their work in serious light. They enlisted the help of engineer Vance Powell (Jack White, The Dead Weather) to narrow down their numerous demos into a cohesive record and bring it to life. They cut the chosen tracks live in Powell’s studio and brought on Kyle Dreaden, now producer of the band, to mix. After years of heavy touring and writing, Tesla Rossa is finally celebrating their first full-length release. LISTEN HERE…
