[Mouthful of Bees]
"It's too late for you, and it's too late for me."

I hate bees - unfortunate situation involving me, a bee and my coke can. Despite the name, however, Mouthful of Bees is anything but an unpleasant experience. No, the bees in reference here leave pots of sweet, sweet musical honey in your mouth, not stinger-induced sores. Starting up as a brother-sister guitar and drummer duo, Mouthful of Bees is a Minneapolis-based quartet, all of which cannot ask for a brewskie at the bar, legally. Yep, these guys are young'ns, and it is on that foundation of youth that Mouthful of Bees builds a structure of healthy, intelligent rock. Vocals reminiscent of Clap You Say Yeah's front man - that queasy hush of vocals - warble through sharp lyrics. Anyone that liked the Battle Royale ought to like these guys. They're labelmates and even hold 2 of their members. The thing that really pulled me in was the brilliantly fun opening guitar riff on The Now and the subsequent fancy guitar work kept my interest in them building.
