Pintail

Only the third show for Pintail? It’s a new band from Tyler Zucco-Bernard, whose artcore band This Body Is All I Have In This World is a real mouthful, and possibly on hiatus.

A cursory search reveals at least two other Pintails. One from Canada and the other from the UK. The coast is clear in New England at any rate. All the sensible band names have already been taken, so to find a new original one, you have to resort to strange spelling, grammar, or just make the name really long like This Body Is…

Pintail is a short name and, at first blush at Deep Cuts, has a pithier sound. Less oblique artcore wrangling, more of a straight ahead post punk attack.

Diane Young

Another newish band, Diane Young, a five-piece with some alt pop jangle and solid vocal harmonies.

Not that many shows notched into the belt just yet, but there are some veteran musicians in the mix, including the fronter from Good June.

Is Diane Young a specific person or just a general “band name concept”? Bandcamp lists membership as follows: nina, dan, alex, jack, zach. So I’m guessing it’s both a specific person and a “band name concept” (you know, they named it after a gym teacher they all shared in sixth grade or something like that).
