Tanuki Suit Riot

Review: Video game cover band Tanuki Suit Riot

Overall Feeling: 
Enjoyable, funky-fresh, jazzy rock covers and mash-ups of classic retro games and pop music. Any video game fans in California should support this group and stop by a show!
The Pros: 
Fantastic solos and break downs, specifically the guitar solos! Great composition in mash-ups and bonus points for live instruments!
The Cons: 
Sometimes saxophone / horn sections drag or miss their mark. This happens mostly in their older slower tempo tracks, but it's by no means game over for this band.

In my random Internet wanderings a few weeks ago, I stumbled across a kick ass band in California named Tanuki Suit Riot who plays video game covers and mash-ups. This type of band is not really a new thing, but it's their choice of style that particularly caught my personal interest.
