For most people, today is the official first day of school, so I thought we'd mellow things down with The Static Age. Described as Dark-Wave Pop, the band takes cues from from the past three decades citing bands like Psychedelic Furs, Joy Division, and The Cure as their influences. Lead singer Andrew Paley has a soft yet confident voice that'll catch anyone's ears. Their newest album "Blank Screens" is set to come out just 2 weeks from today. It's available off their site for pre-order now for all you eager-beavers.
