Sounds Like
a swirling, jangly mix of sunny california and the murky banks of the mersey.
some press clippings:
"Such a lush sound with lots to discover on every subsequent listen. [It] reminds me a lot of Sloan with the shifts from major to minor and the Beatle-esque pop sense."
-Al Grego, soundclick.com
"In the grounded pop vein of Wilco, Aaron Spacemuseum does a nice job of mixing instruments and lyrical content to weave textural song material."
-c0nsensus.com
"LA folk-rock, laid back country vibe, relaxed beat, and smooth lyrics...it sounds cool as all hell."
-Don Klaus, RockZone
"it sounds like dolphins fucking"
-jenny mccormick
You're more of a Viper (Tom Skerritt). The one wise enough to not fully participate, while also guiding those fooish enough to do so. Or I'm talking out of my ass.

Ron Darling and Keith Hernandez are now full time commentators for the Mets. Sometimes, their conversations and insight are even better than the actual game.
