Athens, GA is one of the few towns that I'll give a chance to any band from there based on its rich musical history. Our latest discovery is Immaterial Possession. In keeping with Athens tradition (and not just the fact that Kiran Jeremy Fernandes is a descendant of Elephant 6's John Fernandes), Immaterial Possession have a sound truly their own. Their latest single, "See Through Stares," has an avant-garde, theatrical, psychedelic, gothic feel, all without sounding anything near as pretentious as that description sounds. The song has a true Southern roots and Americana feel while still containing all of those other elements. It's the kind of sound that could have truly only come from Athens. You can watch the video for "See Through Stares" below. Immaterial Possession's self-titled debut is due out on July 31 via Cloud Recordings. You can pre-order a copy here.
