Gothamist Band of the Week: +/-

+/- (plus/minus) is:
james baluyut = vox, guitar, keyboard
chris deaner = drums, sampler
patrick ramos = vox, guitar, keyboard

+/- isn't the easiest name to google, but once you've found them, it's likely you won't forget how to get back. We've been digging their dark, hypnotizing electro pop for a few years now and are excited to see they are back from an extended stint in Japan at the end of last year. They are also about to come out with a new LP, and are back entertaining the Williamsburgers this Friday night with Say Hi To Your Mom at Northsix. We are excited to finally go check them out live.

+/- - Suprise (mp3)
+/- - Trapped Under Ice Floes (redux) (mp3)
