SXSW 2012 is over. Head to the SXSW 2014 Schedule!
From Greg Beets, The Austin Chronicle:
Given its high-gothic horror-movie fashion sense, the Black Belles would be a natural stand-in for Winona Ryder if a Beetlejuice sequel ever comes to fruition. The Nashville, Tenn., quartet's swirl of tremolo-heavy guitar, overdriven vintage organ tones, tribal percussion, and droll vocal delivery makes its 2011 Jack White-produced debut a real hoot. The Belles' artful rendering of the Knickerbockers' "Lies" is disorienting and catchy all at once.
