Band Descriptions That Grind Our Gears

Monday, January 11, 2010

We got reviewed by our Alaskan comrade over at Blogging Nothing Out Of Something. Here's what she had to say about our unofficial album's worth of demo material:

The please & thank yous are a punk band from Chicago. Their sound is a mix of the noodling bass lines of early Alkaline Trio (think "Nose Over Tail" and "Clavicle"), the honest lyrics and raw vocals of the Promise Ring, the catchiness and energy of the Ergs!, and the badass drumming of Lifetime. They remind me of Dear Landlord a lot, which I consider to be a great thing.Thank Yous... is a compilation of various demos and live tracks that the band has recorded from 2007-2009. All of the eleven tracks on the compilation are worth the listen, though the acoustic tracks do seem a little awkward and lose the album a little steam, it's not enough to take away from the rest of the songs. tpaty have an album coming out early next year, so watch out for that, and I'll try and keep you updated.

Probably the most flattering review we'll ever get! <3 That's like, all our favorite bands in one review.


Moving on...

...really? this tells us absolutely nothing about your band, other than that you're generically pretentious. "creative partnership"? like, coitus?
