Roomates were I assume three roommates that were all musically inclined in some form or fashion and decided to create this little obscure incarnation. They sound more like a mid 80’s alternative new wave outfit with lots of shimmering guitars, an emotive vocalist and a competent independent production. Guitar new wave rock sounds were very prevalent with the myriad of alternative bands in the 80’s…Roomates embraced this formula with success and add some of their own distinction along the way… A promising band that was overlooked for sure….Out of print, private pressing via Roadtrip Records..
