I never heard a better sound

secret dakota ring

Let's get this out of the way: Secret Dakota Ring is a really, really awesome name for a band. You wish you had a band called Secret Dakota Ring, or you wish you at least thought of it, and impressed your friends with this band name over beers and cheese curds (look it up, people outside the midwest. Cheese curds are God's gift to calorie enthusiasts).

Secret Dakota Ring - The Fade To Black.

But anyway. Know how there are times - days, weeks, months, whatever - when you need a beat to keep going? How you're having such a shitty time that you need the strong, consistent backbeat to fuel you so you do what needs to get done? That's how I feel about this. The past month or so has been kind of stupid, and I've been listening to a lot of music like this. That beat! It's likely to save my Friday.

Secret Dakota Ring consists of two guys: Andy Ross (also OK Go's guitarist) and drummer Travis Harrison. This track is from their new record Cantarell, which is the band's second. It's out now on Serious Business.
