28 Degrees Taurus
28 Degrees Taurus are a shoegaze/psychedelic rock band from the Boston area. Their musical ideals are somewhere between the late ’60s and early ’90s. The band has been together since about 2005 with various drummers. Live shows are crazy, electric, loud and ecstatic. The records are catchy, hypnotic and fluctuate a lot between the various time periods and styles they’re influenced by. The band has released two full-length records and two EPs.
