Tourmaline
Forget Minneapolis… there’s something in the water of New Jersey, and it’s less toxic than you think. Tourmaline also hail from the wrongly-maligned state, and it’s almost as if they’ve managed to ignore the laptop era altogether. Shameless guitar solo posturing and arena vocals applied to airtight songwriting might not have made them the coolest band during the dance-punk era, but after years of opening for everyone from Ted Leo to Richard Lloyd, their homage to the nuclear family of rock and roll is at home in 2010.
