The Phuss play fast, loud, very good rock & roll. The three-piece from Fort Worth, TX, are best described as Garage Rock- loud as hell with fierce guitar riffs, punchy, raw lead bass, intense vocals, and precision drumming covered in grease. The band formed in 2008 by frontman and guitarist Josh Fleming and drummer Trey Alfaro, adding bassist Forrest Barton in 2010. In 2011 the band were picked up by the local indie label Do For It Records. Fleming describes the band's sound as "pop-punk kids that grew up and got their hearts broken and started getting wasted". The Phuss’s second album, produced by Vaden Todd Lewis (Singer and songwriter of legendary Texas band The Toadies) and Robby Baxter (Moby), mixed by Stuart Sikes (The White Stripes) is full of distorted, loud, but melodic and frightfully sharp, precise rock tunes. “Their talent is overt and arresting. The result is artful and moves at a very real momentum. There is no hyperbole with The Phuss. The trio of musicians affects a posture exactly commensurate with their ability to knife through the room. Their stage strut is a claim made veracious by their impressively tight sound. It is rock and roll in its most crystalline, adrenal seductiveness.” (D Magazine 9-2010) Embarking on a vigorous touring schedule armed with a new killer album and the rabid support of music critics, high profile bands and thousands of loyal fans-2012 is the year the world gets to meet Dallas’ finest, loudest rock and roll band, The Phuss. |
