I drove recently from Nashville Tn, to Tampa FL and listened to every Autumns album from Suicide to Fake Noise. It was a spiritual experience. Maybe they should put MDMA in the water.
I really like your music and I kind of hope Koroshec reads this cause he's pretty much my inspiration. Ever since he have me a sticker with your band logo on it, I've been really into your music. It's really good :]
Radiohead's "Paranoid Android" popped up on the itunes shuffle the other night and a friend asked me "Why does this band so desperately want to be The Autumns?" and I laughed because it really did sound a lot like something you might have done once or twice...
We recently had a moment of "oh, dear, are we the Kristen Schaal-like annoying superfan to the Autumns?" And then we realized you have numerous superfans, and we were content.
ohh man. ok i got the new album and please keep writing and singing like track 7!!! I really really must admit I miss the angel pool atmospherics. So much. It's a production thing. ;)
Just listened to The Angel Pool for the first time in a long while... What a great album! It's just as fresh as it was eleven years ago. (Wow -- has it been that long?)
