Sometimes, you hear a band so cool, you wish you could be the singer's new best friend. And then there's Giant Drag. This L.A. boy-girl duo sounds so brilliantly snide and surly, so emotionally toxic, you'd hide under the couch every time they come over. Guitarist and vocalist Annie Hardy kicks the various gentlemen in her life, running the romantic gamut from "You're Full of Shit" to "Kevin Is Gay," while drummer-keyboardist Micah Calabrese tries to stay out of her way. It's Mazzy Star for perverts, basically. Giant Drag have a surprisingly sharp shoegazer guitar sound, very My Bloody Valentine, which combines with the catty vocals for great tunes like "Pretty Little Neighbor," "High Friends in Places" and "YFLMD," which stands for "You fuck like my dad." You could use a little Giant Drag in your life.
