The Morals frontman Casey Moral has one of those honest, straightforward, convincing voices where everything he sings sounds like he means it—and sounds like he's singing it just minutes after the lyrics' events (be it love, adventure, or drama) went down. It's that perfect mix of tuneful and cracked, almost raspy, but not. While Casey does his thing, homeboy Ben Moral plays guitar, sings a little, and helps weave folk structure, harmonica ronks, and acoustic guitar into fine, catchy, respectable pop. See for yourself: myspace.com/themorals. Oh, and they're local. You and me—we're always looking for good local music, right? Fuck yeah, we are. I love you too. ADAM GNADE
