For a two piece group, Solids never ceases to thrash around. The Montréal based band, comprised of Xavier Germain Poitras on guitar and Louis Guillemette on drums, already has quite a following. In 2010, Solids released an EP, Generic Dogs, and would later disseminate two 7"s, one titled Fog Friends b/w Blown Out and a split with Toronto band Animal Faces. On February 18th, 2014, Solids debuted their full-length album, Blame Confusion on Fat Possum Records. Their sound, complete with filtered vocals and punk-powered melodies, nearly brought down the KEXP studio. Solid!
