Is it possible for a “drinking band with a rock problem” to actually care about every single note they play? Despite a fondness for booze of all forms, Minneapolis transplants Lesser Known Saint don’t let consumption get in the way of their shared desire to create dynamic music full of intertwining melodies, waves of texture, and sludgy riffs.
