----------------------------------------------------------------------- Indie Rock, (on a major; but that's just a style vs status issue). Emotional but not Emo (stop saying emo). Pop but not so popular (Warhol did pop in a commercial way. Rauchenberg did pop in fine art way). Soul-ful but not Soul,Dream-pop, but not a Dreamsicle (well, maybe... if dark chocolate replaced the vanilla interior). Alt (because AP magazine says so.) but not alternative...Maybe if the Fathers of "Alt" endorsed it, but Stipe or Cobaine will never agree. Haunting but not in an evil way; not like a scary, scary clown. Folkish (sometimes) but not country. Catchy - like when you catchy a fishy. Moody but not e-winey. Melodic - yes.very. Rock but take it out of the rock-tumbler after only 3 days (more than that and they get too polished. some disagree. we like guitars in tune and all that shizzle)Radio Rock? Not so far; the machine says they're not "broad" enuf' lyrically, so maybe that's good; Radio = dumbie downio. sorry, but eisley's music does not compare to the man-rock drawl that dominates the current dying, radio regime (dominion?).College Radio? - yes. Web Radio? - yes. Some Serius and XM. Modern Rock? - hmmm... Modern Art began late 1800's and ended in the 1970's; Music and art are typically joint manifesto's. Organic: yes, but if an organ - a heart (aww...). Punk Rock? not, because yesterday, a punk rock fan left a message saying, "your music sucks, eat s___ and die"... nevertheless, it seems that the pop part of punk resonates w/ lots of pop-punkers.


Sounds like: a deep woods troll (a kind one; not mean) who was kicked out of his evil hovel (insubordination)... and, while wandering about the forest floor, he stumbled upon the one and only Elf tree (Keebler) in the thick, dark enchantment. He knocked and knocked, and finally heard a shout from above:"hey...don't you know there are grizzly's out there?" and just threw him a mint chocolate cookie. After eating the cookie, the Troll felt safe...so he sojourned on - deep, deep into the forest where he wallowed out a beautiful little home (a pine bed for slumbering); but rest assured, he always kept his GrizBlade 6000 zirconium coated machete blade beside him...just in case ole' Grizz' came a paw-flashin' in the night. "With lightbulbs in our pockets, we light the darkened forest".


.."282a20">INDUSTRY REVIEWS:

Entertainment Weekly Review "...the DuPree kids expand their sound - contrasting soaring, Radiohead-aping vocals with big-bottomed prog-rock grooves." - Kerrang London, England. "The girls' voices are as angelic as they are disturbing, pitch perfect - amazingly so, in fact - but their harmonies full of spectral sorrow and deep-rooted despair" - Texas Monthly "Combinations: is album two, and it's the proverbial time to deliver. That they do..." - Spin Magazine "Remember the '70s? Neither do they (eisley), but that doesn't stop 'em." Throughout Combinations, the DuPree sisters augment the slow-moving indie pop of their 2005 debut full-length with dramatic prog-guitar lines and shades of Fleetwood Mac's warm soft-rock glow." - Pop Matters "The album proves Eisley to be masters of melody, strong lyricists, and capable of evoking a whole combination of emotions." -Boston Globe Review "...Eisley is a darker and more aggressive than ever before..." -AP Magazine "Lone Star's plaintive pop stars muscle up, but stay lovely." -Houston Chronicle "...dirgelike lyricism against thrashing instrumentation that could fill an arena." -Absolute Punk.net "...Combinations proves to be their best work to date. ...Combinations proves to be the perfect end of summer/beginning of fall album.
