California based rockers Frantic Romantic emanate the essence (and a charming nostalgia) for the magical process of music discovery during an era now simply referred to as the ’90s.
They are that band you stumbled upon in a shitty dive bar one random night with whom you uncontrollably fell in love with. Their songs were included on those mixtapes you carefully curated and handed to your girlfriend(s). They are the band you tried to emulate with your middle school buddies during talent shows. They are rock and roll from a gradually distancing era of music history that many of us hold near and dear to our hearts.
Once you watch the video for their latest single, Celestina, you are going to remember what it was like to fall in love with music again.
When you discovered Nirvana before they were Nirvana, The Red Hot Chili Peppers before you Flea was ever recognized in public, and before rock and roll became too overly processed, quantized, formulaic and predictable.
The visual for this gradually intensifying, RAWK’in extravaganza takes this sonic treat to a whole other level! The very distinct style of animation sets the band apart from your average indie rockers while simultaneously sharing the band’s fun and charismatic character. The chemistry among this group is undeniable. Considering they were all (unsatisfactorily) working on individual projects before Frantic Romantic was born, these musicians truly formed like Voltron with (very) satisfying results!
