Has anyone around these parts heard the earlier Oxford Collapse records? I love "Please Visit Your National Parks," the song from their new record Remember the Night Parties coming out on Sub-Pop Oct 10. Yet I just went to e-music to check out clips from earlier records in order to see if I wanted to download one of the other albums, and I was underwhelmed. It sounded dangerously close to a lot of the other Brooklyn/Williamsburg bands who apparently just discovered Gang of Four. Granted, I only listened to 15-second snips, so I just wanted to find out what anyone who had given those records a real chance might think of the band.

Yeah, I'm curious to see what the Oxford Collapse sound like live. I'm going to check them out at the Sub Pop showcase at SXSW. Is anyone else headed down to Austin? I'm also especially excited to see The Apples in Stereo, The Faintest Ideas, Clem Snide, The Watson Twins, The Manhattan Love Suicides, John Doe, The Pipettes, Maritime, and Tullycraft.
