Things are happening! First off, The Whiskers were recently reviewed by Delusions of Adequacy: Hopefully additional professional-type reviews of this caliber will be rolling in.
Speaking of The Whiskers, a brand new Whiskers tune will be appearing, alongside efforts from an impressive list of indie-rock luminaries, on a compilation curated by the Aussie literary rag The Lifted Brow. I’d tell you who else is on it but I think it’s a secret and you wouldn’t believe me anyway. The Whiskers are busy working on the follow-up to The Distorted Historian and may even play some shows in the near future.
Next, Fewn completed their new album, Echolocate Yourself. It is, in many ways, their first fully-realized album, written and recorded as a four piece and largely eschewing the postal-rock style of past efforts. In other words, it’s their best album yet. It’s due on Oct. 31st in honor of Robert Pollard’s birthday. There are a good handful of preview-like tracks on their Myspace.
