What we say about Florida, by Florida

Rating: happy This record left our Business Lady feeling happy.

Florida are an unknown entity to me but impress with an excellent 3D sleeve and limited d.i.y looking 7" single on Shdwplay records. A-side 'Icarus' is a druggy pop rock number that immediately impresses with it's mongy vocal and lazy riffarama. It's a strange but likeable tune that certainly worth investigating. Sort of reminds me of Chicago's The Bitter Tears, slightly country tinging and unnerving macabre. B-side 'Once Yr in it' sounds like a loose Pink Floyd jam with a super slurred, impossible to decipher vocal line. Again, it's fucked up but in a good way. I welcome the ridiculous guitar solo with open arms and thank the lord that some one, somewhere in the world is out there making fun records for me to enjoy. Get yer 3D geggs on and mong out yo!

Florida founder Daniel Rineer began writing and recording for lo-fi, psychedelic releases in early 2006. In Brooklyn, New York, early 2008, a band had formed. This consisted of CJ Jankow, Jordan Pettingill, and Daniel. Both Jankow and Pettingill were from the state of Florida and have been lifelong musical partners in bands such as Cop City Chill Pillars & Freak Church. Both members are once again residing in Florida. Daniel, who was born in Alaska and has lived in Texas, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Arizona, San Francisco & LA, still currently resides in NY. Teruhisu Uchiyama from Japan, is the current bass player. John Martinez from Arizona & LA is on drums and backing vocals, and Daniel is on guitar and vocals.
