love, structuralism, the occult, psychedelia, erotica, media theory, infrapolitics, tropicalia, memory, the spectacle, feminism, art nouveau, musique concrete, mental illness, horror, collage, cats, symbolic interactionism, identity construction, "pop."
Sounds Likean outdoor conversation between clara rockmore, egon schiele, anais nin, alfred hitchcock, joan retallack, king tubby, rogerio duprat, bell hooks, rod argent, gal costa, marshall mcluhan, jean-luc godard, anne kaplan, and philip larkin.

The Canals:
"Recalling a combination of the unobtrusively pleasant sounds of Belle and Sebastian and the adventurous – almost nightmarish – arrangements of Os Mutantes (especially on “Margo Left in Bed”), Brown Recluse Sings proves to have the ability to stretch into a world of sound beyond conventional indie-pop."

Skatterbrain on "Night Train":
"The bright, poppy keyboards and the horns mesh perfectly, creating a nice, lush melody that, well, gets stuck in your head pretty quick."

Badminton Stamps on "Western Meadowlark":
"And for your downloading pleasure, what has no doubt been my number one song during this lazy hazy last month of summer: an effortlesss, washed-out lullaby coo from Brown Recluse Sings."

Philadelphia Freedom:
"Belle & Sebastian. The Left Banke. The Zombies. David and Bacharach. The Stone Roses. I'm reminded of all these and more when I tune in and turn on to the day-glo sounds of Brown Recluse Sings, a five piece who were recently brought to our attention by the fabulous ears and minds of Badminton Stamps. "Your favorite new band," they write. And now mine too."

rotten tangerines is sweet! the song I mean, not the fruit. I'd imagine the fruit to be kinda funky tasting, in a not good way. like you'd take a bite and then go fla fla fla fla until you got it all out of your mouth. anyway, good song.

Hello Brown Recluse Sings,

Thanks for the add and kind words!
I love Rohmer's six moral tales and Rendezvous in Paris. : )
Now, a Japanese pay TV channel broadcasts Rohmer's works as special feature.

Anyway, love your music,
Cheers!
