Shogun was the lead singer of Royal Headache. He's now fronting his own band, Shogun and the Sheets, and the band's debut single is out next month on What's Your Rupture.
Now, there's not a lot to write about at the moment but I do like this, and I liked Royal Headache quite a bit, so this is certainly something to pay attention to. These two tracks are, hopefully, nice indications of what direction Shogun and the Sheets will go on their debut album next year (fingers crossed), with "Hold On Kid" having a vibe like something from Rich Kids or The Undertones, while "Pissing Blood" is more lean, bad intent dripping off Bad Seeds riffs.
More details on Shogun and the Sheets via the band's official website, or via the band's official Facebook page.
