“What the Stones were, what the Dandy Warhols should’ve been.” --Magnet Magazine

"The first great band of SXSW this year." Michael Corcoran, Austin-American Statesman

"The kind of band SXSW was made for." The Austinst

Vancouver's Lions In The Street have finally released their debut full-length album, after a four-year fight with the now-bankrupt TVT Records. These songs (mostly recorded live to tape at Mushroom Studios with Shawn Cole) take pre-punk rock and roll as their starting point, but are inspired ultimately by the spirit of gospel music: this is the kind of weary-though-hopeful, beaten-but-not-broken record that only a band who had been through the ringer could make.
