Papertrigger just happens to be my favorite band in Philly right now, by a long shot. You MUST see these guys live as soon as you can. "With the release of their debut 'Riot Lovers' EP at the end of 2007, Philadelphia's Papertrigger have crashed into people lives with an astounding and relentless energy, drawing comparisons to such acts as Blackheart Procession, Beirut, Ben Folds Five and late-era Radiohead.
Their songs and live show carry an undeniably epic quality about them, and yet pull on universal feelings that you'd be hard-pressed not to give in to. Theirs is a ghostly and intricate universe, full of winsome tides of raw energy, soaring guitars, haunted group chants and marching band pomp.
Fans have appropriately nicknamed their song styling "bar-brawl music", because it's music they feel you might hear during a bar fight. Granted, it's not a bar you'd be likely to find in this time period, or on this planet, but a bar nonetheless."

Check out their video for "Fox Hunting", off the Riot Lovers' EP.
And Check out their video from VIMBY. Oh yeah, and just so you know, this is not your typical 5 piece band, they have all sorts of makeshift instruments that they bring along to their shows.
And guess what??
Papertrigger goes into the studio to begin recording their new album with Pork Fried Productions at the end of July. Yeah, bananasss.
