The Chain Gang Of 1974, Jonathan And BPro, and American Tomahawk at Hi-Dive
Following in the footsteps of friends and tourmates 3OH!3, Kamtin Mohager (a.k.a. The Chain Gang Of 1974) employs a similar holler-over-sampled-beats method to collect his Internet fans. However, unlike his area-coded homies, Mohager doesn’t seem to get his own joke—tracks like “We At The Disco” and “DANCEKISSLOVEMOVE” position the (mostly) one-man band as more of a too serious LCD Soundsystem rip-off than a humor-driven performer. Regardless of the snarky connotations, Mohager may be the hardest working man in the Denver music business: As The Chain Gang Of 1974, he will release two full-lengths, Fantastic Nostalgic: The Early Recordings and Mad Paranoid,as well as a six-song EP, White Guts, all before the summer of 2010.
