Palpable desperation is one of rock'n'roll's most valuable commodities, because it's impossible to fake. What makes bands like Pixies, Fugazi, and Les Savy Fav so exciting -- and what makes the Shackeltons, from Chambersburg, Pennsylvania, similarly thrilling -- is a breathlessness, a creeping sense that crouched behind the towering melodies and heard-'em-before razor guitars (think Television, in addition to the aforementioned bands), there's complete breakdown. A half-dozen times on their debut, the Shackeltons sound completely convincing, and that's about six more times than most bands ever manage.
