Can someone tell me something about this band? there's precious little on the website, although i've been seeing the name pop up on lists here and there. i really, really like the song Still Life but it's mostly because of the way that the drums crash through what is ostensibly otherwise a pretty twee song. how's the rest of the album?

Oh, I'm curious too. AMG references both Flaming Lips and Magnetic Fields in their bio.

This is my favorite record of 2005. Lush, overpowering music. Love the sound and the description of Flaming Lips and Mag Fields is pretty much dead on, although I feel is if I haven't heard anything quite like this before. I'm a sucker for musical landscapes, and this has that in spades.

I have heard it on Album 88. I think it is top notch.

There are four other MP3's (besides "Still Life") available for download at this site:

"Still Life" is the best track in my opinion.

I really like Our Pen's Out Of Ink.


Especially the part at the beginning with the goose honking.
