Titus Andronicus took their name from a Shakespeare play and came out of Glen Rock, New Jersey, in 2005 swinging just as hard. Patrick Stickles sings, writes the words and plays guitar, and he's the engine of the thing: a ranter with a punk's lungs and a novelist's appetite, backed by guitarist Liam Betson and a lineup that has kept evolving, with Amy Klein on guitar and violin for a spell and Julian Veronesi and Eric Harm among the players who've come and gone. These days R.J. Gordon plays bass, Mike Carson plays keyboards and Chris Wilson drums.

They've pointed to Neutral Milk Hotel and Pulp as touchstones, and you can hear both in the ragged grandeur of The Monitor, their 2010 album on Merge Records. "A More Perfect Union" is the one that lights the fuse: a raw, shout-along punk rock charge that keeps piling on guitars and gang vocals until it sounds like a whole town marching down the street.
