about

Staking claim to the shaggy charm of indie rock - back when it was called "college rock" and wasn't overwhelmed by sensitive snivelers - 'Chords To Live By' delivers the same chunky riffs and power-pop hooks reminiscent of Superchunk and a meaner Cheap Trick. B&E's sound is heavier, dirtier and grittier than these roots, but you still get songs about cars and girls - as well as large birds, Burmese countries and the way hitting four perfect chords feels like nothing else in the world.
