Aster

I'm not really sure when the two-man band thing really got off the ground and took off. My first exposure to it was the White Stipes who do it perfection. Then, there are the Black Keys who are equally as good. And then there are a bunch more that are on the tip of my tongue but I can't name right now.

You can now add Austin, TX's Aster to the mix of two-man bands. Their debut album Some Things Seldom Heard Of is out now. Musically the remind me a little bit of Grandaddy only a little more electronicy. But, the intro to "Stop The Parade" sounds more like Coldplay on testosterone and without the wimpiness. It's a nice little jam.
