New Music From Frantic Clam

4 comments

719654282_rixih-LFrantic Clam is an Austin band that won us over in 2009 with their stellar EP Anatomica. Now after many lineup changes and some hardcore Austin live dates, the guys are back with new single “Sasha Grey”.  This catchy little number is meant as a preview for Frantic Clam’s upcoming debut LP entitled Lolita due out in spring 2010.  Wondering who Sasha Grey is?  Try searching her name online.  Just be careful if you work with young children or have a jealous wife…
