From Seattle, The Long Winters, deliver lyrical intimacy and melodic complexity. Its undeniably catchy pop all behind John Rodericks gruff bitchiness. The bittersweet combination is compelling.
Bound plays brisk, tightly wound guitar rock that works through pattern after pattern behind the fractured storytelling of Bobby Gallivan's lyrics. There are touches of the band's fellow Chicagoans Wilco and Tortoise in the music, but Bound Stems have their own impatient timing and oblique revelations. Portlands Stars of Track and Field are poppy, electronic and dreamy.When Winterpills released their debut album in the fall of 2005, fans
and critics alike scrambled to define what made it one of most
significant musical discoveries of the year. Critics met the album with
descriptions like Heavy with moments of sheer beauty, exquisite
vocals, deeply movingheartrending, and as textured as the best
indie rock around.
