TOY: "Lose My Way" & "Motoring"
Into The Horrors? Then you might dig TOY, who are conversant in all things traditionally indie rock and/or post-punk. There are psychedelic and garage elements here as well. Their overt allegiance to mid-80s Jesus and Mary Chain reverb-laden mud rock and Echo & The Bunnymen croon could lead one to cite the soundtrack from Some Kind of Wonderful as the band's chief influence. Decent songs with decent videos.
