Gauntlet Hair was an indie rock band from Denver, Colorado. The members consisted of Craig Nice and Andy Rauworth. After releasing two extended plays, they signed to record label Dead Oceans and have released their self-titled debut album. Nice and Rauworth had been playing music together since their freshman year of high school. Previously located in Chicago, they moved to Lafayette to hone their sound, and subsequently relocated to Denver.
Gauntlet Hair's self-titled debut is the most compelling demonstration yet of the band's knack for headphones-friendly fist-pumpers. Andy and Craig say they've been playing together since they were 15- almost a decade ago- and their songs are stacked with enough ideas to back that up. Andy, who lists the Durutti Column's impeccably fluid guitarist Vini Reilly as an inspiration, uses lots of delay, chorus, and echo effects on his springy guitar licks, giving them a refracted, percussive quality while also making them sound larger than life. But then you remember Gauntlet Hair are originally from Illinois, where they recorded this album- at Andy's grandmother's house. Andy and Craig trade off vocals, which evokes comparisons to likeminded duos: the more cerebral No Age, the more visceral Japandroids.

Gauntlet Hair gets a lot of undue shit for their band name. Apparently it refers to a Johnny Winter album: the band purchased the record, which featured an odd photo of the artist on the back cover. At the point of purchase, the clerk said something like dude’s got that gauntlet hair pirateapprentice. Gauntlet Hair Fanpage. com/watch?v izLOc m-Vek.
