I feel like a lot of people slept on this band, or maybe I just wasn't paying close enough attention last year. I liked them right away but it has since grown on me quite a bit. It seems I hear far too much about certain bands and not enough about bands like White Denim.

White Denim has a real dirty rock and roll vibe but with some truly soulful vocals that bounce somewhere between Sly Stone and Marc Bolan. Musically, one could easily draw parallels to Zeppelin or Hendrix, but they're much closer to Detroit rock despite their home base in Austin.

If what I've said sounds intriguing then I highly suggest you check out their album "Fits" right away. "Regina Holding Hands" is one of my favorite songs at the moment, but it's one of many greats on that album. For those of you who are familiar already, be advised that they are getting ready to release a new album. In the mean time they've posted an album's worth of older material on their site for free download. I would also highly recommend it.
