Right in the first chords of “Over The Edge” we can note an enormous change, not only in the sound but properly in the band. With rhythmic doses and catchy riffs added to the traditional noise, A Sea of Leaves shows itself in its first album, preceded by this present EP.
Recorded during the first months of 2009 in the Play/Rec studio in their home town Santos and produced on their own with the help of Nando Basseto, Eduardo (guitars, voice), Guzz Natale (bass) and Enrico Bagnato (drums) achieved an ideal maturity, bringing post-punk elements notably in Guzz’s bass, guiding the band through obscure paths, added to their characteristic shoegazer noise.
The album is full of hit candidates like “Follow The Leader”, the album’s utmost, with heavy guitars, Adorable-like vocals and a lot of creativity. Other highlights are the shoegaze-post-punk “Cosmic Messenger” and “Strange Noise”, finishing with a post-rock touch of “We Can Do Better” (the two latter songs not included in the single release).
The old A Sea of Leaves is still a young act, with its new line-up and sound, literally a noise bath.
Já nos primeiros acordes de “Over the Edge” nota-se uma enorme mudança, tanto sonora como em termos de banda. Com doses cavalares e rítmicas em riffs grudentos somados ao tradicional noise, o A Sea of Leaves dá a cartada inicial em seu homônimo álbum de estréia, primeiramente saindo do forno como um pré realese.
Gravado no primeiro semestre de 2009 no estúdio Play/Rec em Santos, cidade natal dos caras, produzido pelos próprios com auxilio de Nando Basseto, Eduardo (guitarra e voz), Guzz Natale (baixo) e Enrico Bagnato (batera) atingiram a maturidade ideal, trazendo elementos do pos punk, notadamente pelo baixo de Guzz guiando a banda para caminhos mais obscuros adicionados ao shoegazer noise característico da banda.
O álbum é recheado de candidatas a hits undergrounds como “Follow the Leader”, o ápice do álbum, com guitarras trepidantes, vocal à la Adorable e muita, muita criatividade. Outros pontos altos são os shoegazers pos punkers “Cosmic Messenger” e “Strange Noise”, culminando com o momento post rock do álbum “We Can do Better”.
O velho A Sea of Leaves permanece novo em folha mesmo com a nova formação e sonoridade, literalmente um banho de noise.

I've had a few ask me, When is BlkRadio Live coming back? Well, I now have an answer for you...
BlkRadio LIVE Returns: Saturday September 19th 2009 @ 6pm PDT listen.BlkRadio.net
I get several bands approach me asking to give their songs a listen and to reply back on what I think about their music. I'm not one to step on someone else's art so I tend to keep the critique out of it for the general requests. However I do know that some of the bands out there are serious about wanting some honest feedback. For those bands BlkRadio LIVE is for you.
If you would like your music played on BlkRadio LIVE, drop me a comment on my myspace page with the words "BlkRadio LIVE" in the text. We will announce your name and myspace page so the listeners can go and check you out themselves. (One request per band)
We will play the first song posted on your MySpace band page and give our honest review, allowing the listeners in our Meebo Room to vote for the bands they like and to give their feedback. Get your street team involved if you wish and have your band represented.
The goal here is to provide the artists that want, true feedback, not to cut down or dismantle any band or their art. I respect all the artists that approach BlkRadio for airplay. I know what I like and don't like, which is different then someone else. This is why I would like to bring the band submission process to the listeners. This is their radio, lets give them the opportunity to pick the bands that they like.
Now back to our regularly scheduled programming, already in progress.
Exclusive for bands aired on BlkRadio is our new CONCERT WALL! Send me your latest artwork, CD Covers, Band Posters, etc and I'll add them to our wall and tag your band to the poster.
Our thanks for putting on the best concert, Third Planet from the Sun.
Can't get enough of your favorite Band? Catch them on listen.BlkRadio.net any time, day or night. You never know what you'll hear next. Join us in supporting the best Indie Bands on the planet.
Want to share the love? Give us a call at 888-DOWN-FCC or direct (206-279-7901). Tell us which is your favorite song, or anything else you have to say for that matter. If we like it, we may just put you on the air.
